SNC 450x User’s Guide 51
Management Port Command Reference
All available commands are listed alphabetically beginning on page 57 , and alphabetically by functional
group in Table 6 on page 52. References from the table connect you to an explanation of the command in
the alphabetical list.
Using the Command Line Interface (CLI)
CLI commands are case insensitive. You can type all upper or all lower case or a mixture. Upper and lower
case in this guide and the
help screen are for clarification only. More than half the commands use the
following format:
[Get|Set] Command Name [Parameter 1| Parameter 2]
followed by the Enter key. Arguments which are required are enclosed in square brackets [ ] while
arguments which are optional are enclosed in angle brackets < >.
“Set” commands change the value of a parameter or configuration setting and sometimes require a
saveConfiguration command and a restart of the system before implementation. The restart can be
accomplished as part of the saveConfiguration command or by using a separate firmwareRestart
command. A number of “set” commands can be issued before the saveConfiguration command.
Commands which are not preceded by a “get” or “set” take effect immediately. See Table 4 for a list of
commands that are not preceded by “get” or “set."
Note
The response to a “set” command is either an error message or the
Ready. *.
statement. The asterisk indicates you must use a
saveConfiguration command after the "set" command has been completed.
You are prompted to reboot if a restart is necessary.
