E.2 Using the Telnet Command Line Interface (CLI)

In order to use the Telnet CLI to make configuration changes to the CDM-625,

Remote Access Mode should always be set to [Ethernet].

E.2.1 Telnet CLI Menu System – Parallel Functionality

The Telnet CLI allows monitoring, configuration, and control of the CDM-625 Satellite Modem in

a manner similar to functionality provided via its front panel menus and the CDM-625 Web

Server Interface. See those chapters for more in-depth explanations of operation.

Chapter 5. FRONT PANEL OPERATION

Chapter 6. ETHERNET-BASED REMOTE PRODUCT MANAGEMENT

Certain configuration menu selections (e.g., Carrier-in-Carrier) are functional only

when that FAST feature has been purchased and enabled for operation. This chapter

documents the CLI as if all available options are installed – your configuration may

or may not provide the level of functionality as described in this chapter.

E.2.2 CLI Menus – Common Navigation and Operation Features

1. The CLI organizes operation under a hierarchy of Configuration and Information functions. You

may select a configuration submenu or information page (e.g., Administration, Statistics, etc.)

from this top-level menu, either by typing in the bracketed hot key that preceeds the submenu

name, or by using the ↑↓ arrow keys and pressing ENTER. Each submenu provides nested

dialog windows requiring further action.

2. The bottom of each “screen” shows the possible actions to take.
