System information

Working with the Cable Modem
Overview
For ease of use in console mode, every command has two forms, full and short (for
example, typing tu is the same as tuner). The console commands are organized into a
number of groups that differ in functionality. Each group is called a sub-menu.
Commands that are used more often than others are placed in the main menu in order to
provide quick access to them. As can be seen in the commands list below, the sub-menus
have a > (more than) symbol following their name. To easily display and navigate through
the sub-menus, type the name of the sub-menu you want to view (without the >) at the
prompt. To return to the main menu, type exit.
All commands in all menu levels are in alphabetical order, and are case-sensitive.
Telnet to the Cable Modem
To telnet to the cable modem, follow these steps:
1. Telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (if using the command prompt)
2. Enter password “libit” to login
