Viewing a history of command line entries
The CLI command history log file saves the last 512 commands from all users on a FIFO basis, and this
log is persistent across reboots and firmware downloads. This command is also supported for standby
CPs.
The log records the following information whenever a command ins entered in the switch CLI:
• Timestamp
• Username
• IP address of the telnet session
• Options
• Arguments
Use the following procedure to view the CLI command log:
1. Connect to the switch and log in.
2. Enter the cliHistory command with the desired argument (see below for arguments). Entering no
specific argument displays only the command line history of the currently logged-in user.
cliHistory
Entering the cliHistory command with no arguments displays the command line history for the currently
logged-in user only (even for the root user).
Example of cliHistory command output from root login
