About SHELL Commands
You begin in SHELL mode when you star t a CLI session. SHELL mode lets you per form the
following tasks with your Motorola Netopia® Gateway:
• Monitor its per formance
• Display and reset Gateway statistics
• Issue administrative commands to restar t Motorola Netopia® Gateway functions
SHELL Prompt
When you are in SHELL mode, the CLI prompt is the name of the Motorola Netopia® Gate-
way followed by a right angle bracket (>). For example, if you open a CLI connection to the
Motorola Netopia® Gateway named “Netopia-3000/9437188,” you would see
Netopia-
3000/9437188> as your CLI prompt.
SHELL Command Shortcuts
You can truncate most commands in the CLI to their shortest unique string. For example,
you can use the truncated command q in place of the full quit command to exit the CLI.
However, you would need to enter rese for the reset command, since the first characters
of reset are common to the restart command.
The only commands you cannot truncate are restart and clear . To prevent accidental
interruption of communications, you must enter the restart and clear commands in their
entirety.
You can use the Up and Down arrow keys to scroll backward and for ward through recent
commands you have entered. Alternatively, you can use the
!! command to repeat the last
command you entered.
