Introduction
54 ATMOS Console Commands Reference Manual (Binary) DO-008530-PS, Draft B (26th April 2001)
5.1 Introduction
5.1.1 Scope
A description is provided of the use of console commands.
Command parsing is case insensitive. White-space may be used to
separate distinct arguments. Any prefix of the string
bun to the
command line is ignored.
5.1.2 Build Inclusion
The full BUN console command set is included with all builds that
include the BUN package.
5.1.3 Command arguments
devicename
The name of a device.
Device names are either implicit (i.e.: provided from the compiled-in
device code) or explicit (i.e.: from a
device: configuration request).
Device names may contain upper or lower case letters, but use case
insensitive matching.
portname
The name of a port. This can take several forms:
• The name given on the port configuration request
• The alias name specified in the port's Alias attribute
• The name as a <class>:<instance> pair. For example, atm:0 to
reference the first port supporting ATM cell traffic.
• The BUN port number. For example, 0 to refer to the first port.
The last option may be dropped in a future software release.
Port names may contain upper or lower case letters, but all name
matching is case insensitive.
channelnumber
The number of a channel. Within a port, each available channel is
identified within BUN by a unique channel number. Channel numbers
are positive integers, assigned from zero upwards.
