To execute a command, you enter the full command name, starting at the top level
of the hierarchy. For example, to display a brief view of the routes in the routing
table, use the command
show route brief
.
The hierarchical organization results in commands that have a regular syntax and
provides the following features that simplify CLI use:
Consistent command names—Commands that provide the same type of
function have the same name, regardless of the portion of the software
they are operating on. For example, all
show
commands display software
information and statistics, and all
clear
commands erase various types of
system information.
Lists and short descriptions of available commands—Information about
available commands is provided at each level of the CLI command hierarchy. If
you type a question mark (?) at any level, you see a list of the available
commands along with a short description of each command.
Command completion—Command completion for command names
(keywords) and command options is also available at each level of the
hierarchy. If you type a partial command name followed immediately by a
question mark (with no intervening space), you see a list of commands that
match the partial name you typed.
Starting the CLI
To start the CLI:
1.
Establish a connection with the Services Router:
To access the router remotely from the network, enter the command
you typically use to establish a remote connection (such as
Telnet
or
ssh
) using the router hostname.
To access the router through a management device attached to the
console port, start the terminal application.
2.
Log in using your username and password.
After you log in, you enter a UNIX shell.
