Successful commands return no response in the CLI; commands with errors return
an error response beginning with
%
, followed by a short error description.
■
All commands are case-sensitive and entered in lower case.
■
Port numbers are entered in
<box ID>/<slot ID>/<port ID>
format. For the GigaVUE
TA Series nodes, the chassis ID and slot number are always
1
.
■
Strings must consist entirely of alphanumeric characters with no spaces. The only
exceptions are the underscore (
_
), hyphen (
-
), exclamation point (!), “at” symbol (@),
and period (.) characters. Those are allowed.
For example, in Config mode,
port 1/1/q12 alias My_Alias
is legal, but
port 1/1/q12
alias My Alias
is not.

Some string fields do accept spaces provided the input is made inside
quotation marks
Config Mode Syntax
When using the GigaVUE TA Series CLI, the “config” part of the command is implied
whenever you are working in Configure mode. The system prompt helps you remember
this by including the word
(config)
in parentheses. For example:
(config) #
So, instead of entering
config map
to connect a network port to a tool port, you just
enter
map
followed by the necessary arguments. The
config
part is implied because you
are already working in the Configure command mode. For example:
(config) # map alias myTA40map from 1/1/q1 to 1/1/q5
Paging through CLI Output
By default, the GigaVUE TA Series CLI returns output exceeding the configured terminal
length in pages. The CLI provides the same features for working through the paged
output as the Linux programs
less
and
more
. Press the
h
key to see paging options –
Figure 5Viewing Paging Options
provides an example.
If you prefer, you can disable paging either for the current session or by default:
■
Disable for Current Session
(config) # no cli session paging enable
■
Disable for All Sessions (Default)
(config) # no cli default paging enable
