CHAPTER

Using CCM Appliance Commands

Accessing the CLI

You may access the CLI in three ways: using the Telnet CLI, using the console port or entering the

CLI access character during a session to a serial device. When the CLI is accessed, its prompt

appears (>), indicating you may type a command.

Entering Commands

At the command prompt, type a command and then press Return or Enter. When the key is

pressed, the command line comprises all characters to the left of the cursor. The character at the

cursor and any characters to the right of the cursor are ignored. Table 4.1 lists the line editing

operations for VT100 compatible devices.

Table 4.1: Line Editing Operations for VT100 Compatible Devices

Operation Action

Backspace

The character immediately before the cursor is erased and all text at and to the right of the

cursor moves one character to the left.

Left Arrow

If the cursor is not at the beginning of the line, the cursor moves one character to the left. If the

cursor is at the beginning of the line, no action is taken.

Right Arrow

If the cursor is not at the end of the line, the cursor moves one character to the right. If the

cursor is at the end of the line, no action is taken.

Up Arrow

The CLI maintains a buffer containing the last 16 typed command lines. If there is a previous

command line, it will be output as the current command line and may be edited. If there is no

previous command line in the command line buffer, the command line is set to blanks and you

may enter a new command.

Down Arrow

The next command in the CLI command line buffer is made available for edit. If there is no

next command line, the command line is set to blanks and you may enter a new command.

Delete

The character at the cursor position is deleted and all characters to the right of the cursor

position are moved left one character.
