5.3 Embedded Command Line Interface

The MediaPack provides an embedded Command Line Interface (CLI) that can be used for

configuration and diagnostics. The CLI (or CommandShell) can be accessed using Telnet

or RS-232.

5.3.1 Logging into the CLI

You can access the MediaPack's CLI using a Telnet session or RS-232.

5.3.1.1 Embedded Telnet Server

¾ To access the CLI using the embedded Telnet server:

1. Use a standard Telnet application to connect to the MediaPack's Embedded Telnet

Server.

2. At the login prompt, type Admin, and then press Enter.

3. At the Password prompt, type Admin, and then press Enter.

Once successfully logged in (indicated by command prompt ‘>’), you are in Operator

Execution mode (for information on the CLI modes, refer to Section 'CLI Modes' on page

68). The command prompt is preceded by the MediaPack's current LAN IP address, as

shown below:

'192.168.2.1>'

5.3.1.2 RS-232 Interface

¾ To access the CLI using the MediaPack's RS-232 interface:

1. Connect the RS-232 port to your PC (refer to 'Connecting the RS-232 Serial Interface'

on page 34).

2. Use a serial communication software (e.g., HyperTerminal

) with the following

communications port settings:

• Baud Rate: 115,200 bps (user-defined)

• Data bits: 8

• Parity: None

• Stop bits: 1

• Flow control: None

3. Login using username and password (the default is ‘Admin’ and ‘Admin’ respectively).

4. The baud rate may be changed using the CLI command “console baudrate

<baudrate>”. The valid rates to set are 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600 or 115200. The

default setting is 115200. The new baud rate will be effective after reset.
