The Command Line Interface

The command line interface (CLI) can be used within a TELNET or SSH session.

After login, just enter “setup” to start the CLI setup tool.

The start page gives a short overview of the most important configuration parameters
and the runtime statistics of the unit. In the upper left corner you can read which
LANTIME type and version of the LANTIME software you are using. This
LANTIME software version is a head version number describing the base system and
important subsystem. Below the version you will find the actual hostname and
domain of your LANTIME unit, the IPv4 and IPv6 network address of the first
network interface and on the right side the serial number, the uptime of the system
(time since last boot) and the notification status is reported.

In the second section the actual status of the TCR510 IRIG-reference clock and the
NTP subsystem is shown, additional information about the IRIG-receiver can also be
found here. This includes the current state of the TCR510.

The third section shows the last messages of the system, each with a timestamp
added. The newest messages are placed at the top of the list. This reflects the content
of the file /var/log/messages, which is created after every start of the system (and is
lost after a power off or reboot, see “Syslog server” to learn how to save the entries of
your SYSLOG).

By using the buttons in the lower part of the screen, you can reach a number of
configuration pages, that are described below.
