9.2 Using the Telnet Command Line Interface (CLI)
In order to use the Telnet CLI to make configuration changes to the CDM-625A,
Remote Access Mode should always be set to [Ethernet].
9.2.1 Telnet CLI Menu System – Parallel Functionality
The Telnet CLI allows monitoring, configuration, and control of the CDM-625A Satellite Modem
in a manner similar to functionality provided via its front panel menus and the CDM-625A Web
Server Interface. See those chapters for more in-depth explanations of operation.

• Chapter 7. 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.
9.2.2 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 precedes 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.
