Command Line Descriptions
This chapter provides detailed descriptions of each of the C4 CMTS CLI commands. The CLI commands are organized alphabetically
and apply to the C4 CMTS. When you log in to the CLI, you are in User EXEC mode.
User EXEC
EXEC commands are used for everyday system monitoring. They allow you to change terminal settings on a temporary basis,
perform basic tests and show system information. The prompt
C4>
indicates User EXEC mode and the default access level is 1.
The User Show commands are part of the User EXEC mode. The prompt will be
C4>
as in the User EXEC mode. The User Show
commands display system information. The default access level of User Show commands is 1.
Privileged EXEC
The Privileged EXEC mode commands are used to set operating parameters. If a Privileged EXEC password exists, the CLI

EXEC commands.
To enter Privileged EXEC mode, enter the
