CLI Overview
In the following example, if you press the TAB key, or the
?
(SHIFT+QUESTION MARK), after typing s, the CLI commands
set
,
set-timeout
,
show
, and
sync
display.
Typing
s
at the prompt:
TP2700> s
Then pressing the TAB key :
set
set-timeout
show
sync
Or pressing the
? (SHIFT+QUESTION MARK)
will display the available
commands that start with s (for this example) and brief descriptions of those
commands:
set
-Set TP2700 information or setting
show
-Display TP2700 information or setting
set-session-timeout
-Set the inactivity timeout to the defined
seconds
Previously typed commands can be recalled by using the UP ARROW key. You
can recall up to five previously typed commands. Continually pressing UP
ARROW will show previously typed commands but does not cycle. After pressing
the UP ARROW key five times, you will go back to the last command you
previously typed. Use the DOWN ARROW key to cycle the five prior typed
commands in the opposite direction.
You can use the BACKSPACE to correct keystroke errors, or to reuse parts of a
previously typed command. When using BACKSPACE, the removed characters
will still appear on the screen, but they have been removed to the position shown
by the cursor. When you start typing, the removed characters are overwritten.
Command Line Format
The command line format is as follows:
[Verb] Command [Parameter] [Data] EOL
Verb
- the type of action to be taken with the command.
–
Set
- enables you to provision a defined parameter.
–
Show
- enables you to display the provisioned state of a parameter.
Parameter
- command input that defines the particular command element to be
shown or modified.
Data

<CR Return>, the input is terminated, and the command line entry is processed.
