Using the CLI parameter tables in this guide
Many sections in this guide include tables showing the CLI parameters that relate to the web-
based settings. The CLI parameters nearly always take the following format; there are only a few
exceptions.
<entity> <instance> <parameter> <value>
Where:
<entity>
=
eth, ppp, modemcc, wifi, ike, eroute, etc.
<instance>
=
0, 1, 2, 3, etc… Some entities only use 0. Others have multiple instances.
<parameter>
=
The parameter name, such as, ipaddr, mask, gateway, etc.
<value>
=
The value to set, such as, off, on, 192.168.1.1, username, free_text, etc.
For example, the following table is displayed for Ethernet parameters:
To use this table, read the row from left to right and replace values as appropriate. The first four
columns only are needed for entering commands; the rightmost column shows the equivalent
setting in the web interface.
If the
Instance
is
n
in the table, it is because there are multiple instances available. Use the
instance number you need for your requirements. If the
Instance
is set to a specific number,
such as
0
, use the number specified in the table.
For example, to set a
Description
of
Local LAN
on
Ethernet 0
, enter:
eth 0 descr “Local LAN”
Because of the space between
Local
and
LAN
, the wording is enclosed in double quotes.
