Command Line Interface
Each AXSM card has its own command line interface (CLI), which is similar to the CLIs on the PXMs
and the other service modules.
The CLI is the application that allows you to enter the commands that configure the card. You log into
the CLI using the appropriate user name and password. For detailed information about user names,
passwords, and logging into the CLI, see the Cisco MGX 8800/8900 Series Configuration Guide,
Release 5.2.
Once you have logged into the CLI, you will see a CLI prompt such as the following one:
MGX8850.7.PXM.a >
To change from the CLI of one card to the CLI of another card, use the change card (cc) command. For
example:
MGX8850.7.PXM.a > cc 1
(session redirected)
MGX8850.1.AXSM.a >
CLI Prompt
The format of the CLI prompt is as follows and as described in Table 1-2:
Name.Slot Number.Card Type.Card State >
For example:
MGX8850.1.AXSM.a >
