Fortress Bridge: Command-Line Interface
94
CAUTION: If you
want to be able to
access the Bridge CLI af-
ter outdoor installation,
you must enable SSH
(secure shell) during
pre-configuration of the
Bridge.
6.4.5.7 SSH Access to the CLI
Secure Shell (SSH) is disabled on the Fortress Bridge by
default.
You can view the current SSH setting with show ssh :
[GW]> show ssh
Off
To enable SSH, log on to the CLI (via a direct connection to the
Bridge’s
Console port, as described in Section 6.1.2) and enter:
[GW]> set ssh on
To disable SSH:
[GW]> set ssh off
NOTE: Disabling
SSH prevents re-
mote access to the CLI
from the network. With
SSH disabled you can
access the CLI only over
a direct connection to
the Bridge’s
Console
port.
You can disable SSH from a remote terminal session, and
continue that session normally. Access will be denied,
however, the next time you try to access the CLI remotely.
The show ssh and set ssh commands are valid only in GW
(gateway) mode (refer to Section 6.1.1 for more detail).

default.

[GW]> show gui
On

the CLI, you can disable the Bridge GUI, as follows:
[GW]> set gui off
To re-enable the Bridge GUI, enter:
[GW]> set gui on
The show gui and set gui commands are valid only in GW
(gateway) mode (refer to Section 6.1.1 for more detail).
6.4.5.9 Blackout Mode in the CLI
To Bridge’s front-panel LEDs are enabled by default. You can
disable them, placing the Fortress Bridge in blackout mode.
