5.3 Command
Structure
The system uses a two-level command structure. The commands related to one subsystem are grouped under a
primary command of that subsystem, for instance, to configure the Ethernet parameters, you must first enter the
Ethernet subsystem by entering the ethernet command. When you are in a subsystem, the system reminds you
by including the subsystem name in the command prompt, for example,
192.168.1.1
ethernet>
To get back to the top level prompt from a subsystem, use the home
command.
The remainder of this User’s Guide describes CI Commands that are helpful for configuring
network modules.

Facility
The system includes a help facility to provide you with online assistance.
You can issue the help or ? command at any time. The system will display a list of available commands in
response.
You can issue help with a command name to get more details about it, for instance, the command
192.168.1.1> help version

The system responds with a description of the version command.
5.3.2 Saving
Your
Configuration
Always remember to save your configuration using the following syntax:
