CLI - Command Line Interface
The Command Line Interface (CLI) is used to implement all V-Switch
management functions, including switching, virtualization and security.
The CLI is available via:
Console port via an RS232 connection.
10/100 Ethernet Management port via a Telnet session
(V-Switch 3000 only).
1 Gb Ethernet port Eth1 via a Telnet session.
All CLI commands are case sensitive and must be entered in lower case.
Inputted data can include upper case letters but must always subsequently be
entered in the same case.
The CLI command prompt is >.
All CLI commands in this manual are listed first with the basic command
followed by a table of command switches; their explanations; status (mandatory
or optional) and an example for each command switch, as shown in Table 1-2.
