The User Interface
In order to configure parameters and statistics on the switch, you may connect it to a
terminal, such as a
PC
or
UNIX
workstation, using terminal emulation software. The command
interfaces used on the switch are part of the
MPX
executable image. When a switch boots up,
the boot monitor handles the loading of this executable image and system startup. Once the
image is loaded and initialized, the
CLI
starts.
You access the command interfaces through a connection with the switch. This connection
can be made directly to the serial port, through a modem, or over a network via Telnet. You
can have up to four simultaneous connections to an Omni Switch/Router. (Please see Multi-
ple User Sessions on page 4-33 for further details.) For Telnet access, you must first set up an
IP
address for the switch. See the
Getting Started Guide
that came with your switch for infor-
mation on setting up an
IP
address and logging in.
Overview of Command Interfaces
The Alcatel Omni Switch/Router has two different command interfaces available for configur-
ing parameters and viewing statistics. They are the User Interface (
UI
) and the Command Line
Interface (
CLI
). Prior to software Release 4.4, the switch automatically booted up in the
UI
mode. In Release 4.4 and later, the Omni Switch/Router is factory-configured to boot up in
the
CLI
mode.
♦
Terminology Notes
♦
Command interface
generically refers to any mecha-
nism resident in the software that allows a user to
change switch configurations or to display statistics.
The
UI
is the original command interface used exclu-
sively on all Alcatel Omni Switch/Router and Omni-
Access products. The
UI
has its commands grouped
into functional menus. Prior to software Release 4.1, the
UI
was the only command interface supported on the
Omni Switch/Router products.
The
CLI
is Alcatel’s text-based configuration interface
that allows you to configure Omni Switch/Router and
OmniAccess products using single-line text commands.
The
CLI
was implemented in software Release 4.1 and
higher. In release 4.4 and later it is the default interface.
