2 CLI Commands Configuration

When the P-871M is in CO mode, use the CLI (Command
Line Interface) commands to configure it.

2.1 Syntax Conventions

This manual follows these general conventions:

• Units of measurement may denote the “metric” value or the

“scientific” value. For example, “k” for kilo may denote “1000”
or “1024”, “M” for mega may denote “1000000” or “1048576”
and so on.

Command descriptions follow these conventions:

• Commands are in

courier new font

.

• Required input values are in angle brackets <>; for example,

ping

<

ip-address

>

means that you must specify an IP

address for this command.

• Optional fields are in square brackets []; for instance vdsl

profile [1|2], the name field is optional.

• The | (bar) symbol means “or”.
italic terms represent user-defined input values; for

example, in vdsl downrate [y], y can be replaced by the
actual data rate that you want to set, for example, 10000.

• A key stroke is denoted by square brackets and uppercase

text, for example, [ENTER] means the “Enter” or “Return”
key on your keyboard.
