Chapter 1: Introduction, Navigation and Commands 5

A prompt like the following appears at each level:

--:- appliance_settings cli->

NOTE: CLI commands are case sensitive.

At any level, you can press Tab Tab at the prompt to see the commands that can be entered at the

current level.

---:- appliance_settings cli-><Tab><Tab>

? del ls quit set

add exit opiepasswd refresh shell

cd ftp passwd revert show

commit help pwd scp

If you know the path, you can enter multiple path elements in a single command separated with

forward slashes (/).

--:- units cli-> cd appliance_settings/ports/physical_ports/serial_ports/

--:- serial ports cli->

Enter cd .. to move up one level of the navigation tree. Enter cd ../..[/..] to move up multiple levels.

--:- serial ports cli-> cd ../..

--:- ports cli->

Autocompletion

Autocompletion allows you to type the first few letters of a command or navigation option and then

press

Tab. The rest of the name is filled in automatically if the letters typed are unique to one

command or to a navigation option at that level. If the letters match more than one of the

commands or navigation options for that level, the matching options are listed.

For example, if you type

cd ov and press Tab at the CLI prompt from the /units level, the overview

option will be completed.

--:- units cli-> cd ov<Tab>

--:- units cli-> cd overview

If you then press Enter, you are changed to the overview level, and the overview level prompt

appears.

--:- overview cli->

The following example illustrates a case when more than one command matches the letters typed.

--:- units cli-> sh<Tab>

shell show

1 2 ... 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 ... 69 70
