Entering Commands
By entering commands at the prompt on the configuration console attached to the CPSW console, you
can configure various functions of the 8265. The management prompt appears as follows:
à ð
8265ATM
>
á ñ
Commands are not case-sensitive. The system interprets ABC (uppercase) the same as abc (lowercase).
The values you enter for certain command parameters are, however, case-sensitive and must be typed
exactly as shown in the
IBM 8265 Command Reference Guide. For example, if you enter RWTRAP and
rwtrap for the com_name parameter in two separate SET COMMUNITY commands, you will create two
different community names.

Keystroke Function
BS or Backspace Moves the cursor one space backward and deletes the character.
