Command Line Interface
This appendix describes Cisco Unified Operating System (OS) commands that you can use on the Cisco Emergency Responder (Cisco ER) platform to perform basic operating system functions. The Cisco Unified OS Administration web interface 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 Unified OS Administration web interface.
These topics describe how to use the CLI:
•

Cisco Unified OS CLI Commands
Starting a CLI Session
You can access the CLI remotely or locally using the following methods:
•
You can access the CLI remotely from a web client workstation, such as the workstation that you use for Cisco ER administration, by using SSH Secure Shell to connect securely to the Cisco ER.
•
You can access the CLI locally 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, which is defined during installation:
•
A primary IP address and hostname
•
An administrator ID
•
An administrator password
You will need this information to log in to the Cisco ER platform.
To start a CLI session, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1
Depending on your method of access, do one of the following actions:
•
From a remote system, use SSH Secure Shell to connect securely to the Cisco ER 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@cer-1.
•
From a direct connection, you receive this prompt automatically:
cer-1 login:
where cer-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 appears. The prompt represents the Administrator ID; for example:
admin:
You can now use any CLI command.
CLI Basics
The following topics describe how to perform basic functions using the command line interface.
•
Completing Commands
•
Getting Help on Commands
•
Ending a CLI Session
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, se is expanded to the set command.
•
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 asterisk (*) 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
To get help on commands, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1
To get detailed help, at the CLI prompt, enter
help command
where command specifies the command name or the command and parameter. See Example F-1.
Step 2
To query only command syntax, at the CLI prompt, enter
command?
where command represents the command name or the command and parameter. See Example F-2.
Note
If you enter a question mark (?) after a menu command, such as set, it functions like the Tab key and lists the commands that are available.
Example F-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 F-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
To end a CLI session, enter quit at the CLI prompt. If you are logged in remotely, you are logged off and the ssh session is dropped. If you are logged in locally, you are logged off and the login prompt returns.
Cisco Unified OS CLI Commands
The following sections list and describe the CLI commands that are available for the Cisco Unified OS running on the Cisco ER platform.
Note
The File I/O Reporting Service (FIOR) provides a kernel-based daemon for collecting file I/O per process. It must be enabled from the CLI; it is disabled by default.
