Command Line Interface
Overview
This appendix describes commands that you can use on the Cisco IPT Platform to perform basic platform functions. The Cisco IPT Platform Administration GUI application also makes these functions available. Typically you would use the command-line interface (CLI) only when a problem occurs while you are using the Cisco IPT Platform Administration interface.
Starting a CLI Session
You can access the Cisco IPT Platform CLI remotely or locally:
•From a web client workstation, such as the workstation that you use for Cisco IPT Platform Administration, you can use SSH to connect securely to the Cisco IPT Platform.
•You can access the Cisco IPT Platform CLI directly by using the monitor and keyboard that you used during installation or by using a terminal server that is connected to the serial port. Use this method if a problem exists with the IP address.
Before You Begin
Ensure you have the following information that gets defined during installation:
•A primary IP address and hostname
•An administrator ID
•A password
You will need this information to log in to the Cisco IPT Platform.
Perform the following steps to start a CLI session:
Step 1 Do one of the following actions depending on your method of access:
•From a remote system, use SSH to connect securely to the Cisco IPT Platform. In your SSH client, enter
ssh adminname@hostname
where adminname specifies the Administrator ID and hostname specifies the hostname that was defined during installation.
For example, ssh admin@ipt-1.
•From a direct connection, you receive this prompt automatically:
where ipt-1 represents the host name of the system.
Enter the administrator ID that was defined during installation.
In either case, the system prompts you for a password.
Step 2 Enter the password that was defined at installation.
The CLI prompt displays. The prompt represents the Administrator ID; for example:
admin:
You can now use any CLI command.
CLI Basics
The following section contains basic tips for using the command line interface.
Completing Commands
To complete commands, use Tab:
•Enter the start of a command and press Tab to complete the command. For example, if you enter se and press Tab, set gets completed.
•Enter a full command name and press Tab to display all the commands or subcommands that are available. For example, if you enter set and press Tab, you see all the set subcommands. An * identifies the commands that have subcommands.
•If you reach a command, keep pressing Tab, and the current command line repeats; this indicates that no additional expansion is available.
Getting Help on Commands
You can get two kinds of help on any command:
•Detailed help that includes a definition of the command and an example of its use
•Short query help that includes only command syntax
Procedure
To get detailed help, at the CLI prompt, enter
help command
Where command specifies the command name or the command and parameter. See Example 1.
To query only command syntax, at the CLI prompt, enter
command?
Where command represents the command name or the command and parameter. See Example 2.
Note If you enter a ? after a menu command, such as set, it acts like the Tab key and lists the commands that are available.
Example 1 Detailed Help Example:
admin:help file list activelog
This will list active logging files
detail - show detailed listing
reverse - reverse sort order
file-spec can contain '*' as wildcards
admin:file list activelog platform detail
02 Dec,2004 12:00:59 <dir> drf
02 Dec,2004 12:00:59 <dir> log
16 Nov,2004 21:45:43 8,557 enGui.log
27 Oct,2004 11:54:33 47,916 startup.log
dir count = 2, file count = 2
Example 2 Query Example:
admin:file list activelog?
file list activelog file-spec [options]
file-spec mandatory file to view
options optional page|detail|reverse|[date|size]
Ending a CLI Session
At the CLI prompt, enter quit. If you are logged in remotely, you get logged off, and the ssh session gets dropped. If you are logged in locally, you get logged off, and the login prompt returns.
