Troubleshooting Guide: Telnet

GT-400 Terminal User’s Guide
The Terminal Command Line Interface (CLI)
The command line interface (CLI) is a program that runs within a telnet session. It allows you to
explore the actual database: users, interactions, etc. If your log is not giving you very much
information, you could choose to explore the terminal through the CLI to see if you can determine what
the problem is.
There is integrated help within the CLI, which you can access by typing
h
at the prompt. The most
useful basic activities are viewing interactions that have been sent to the host server, and viewing the
total interaction list. If, for example, you are looking for a user's punch record, and there is no record of
it in the host, you should be able to see if it actually happened by checking the interaction records
through the CLI.
As in all of telnet, the CLI is a place where care must be taken when entering commands.
Logging in and out
Be sure to exit this client properly at all times. If you do not exit properly, it will still be running when
you leave telnet, and you won't be able to get into it again without rebooting the terminal.
Starting the CLI
1
cd
to
RecogSys/Src/Python/RSITerm
2
Type
python2.4 RSICLIClient.pyc
and press Enter. The login prompt should appear.
3
At the prompt, enter
1520
. You should now be presented with the CLI prompt
Exiting the CLI
1
Type
close
at the prompt. Wait to be returned to the telnet prompt.
Viewing help
The CLI comes with contextual help, which you can view by entering
h
at the prompt.
Saving the output to a text file on your computer
You can save output from the CLI session the same way you'd save output from the telnet session; in
fact, it's all in the same session, so simply enable logging for the telnet session and all CLI output will
be saved there.
