Command Line Interface
Introduction
The CLI is used for viewing switch information and statistics. In addition, the administrator can use the CLI for
performing all levels of switch configuration.
To make the CLI easy to use, the various commands have been logically grouped into a series of menus and
submenus. Each menu displays a list of commands and/or submenus that are available, along with a summary of
what each command will do. Below each menu is a prompt where you can enter any command appropriate to the
current menu.
This chapter describes the Main Menu commands, and provides a list of commands and shortcuts that are
commonly available from all the menus within the CLI.
Main Menu
The Main Menu displays after a successful connection and login. The following table shows the Main Menu for the
administrator login. Some features are not available under the user login.

Menu summary
The Main Menu displays the following submenus:
• Information Menu
The Information Menu provides submenus for displaying information about the current status of the switch.
• Statistics Menu
This menu provides submenus for displaying switch performance statistics.
• Configuration Menu
This menu is available only from an administrator login. It includes submenus for configuring every aspect of
the switch. Changes to configuration are not active until explicitly applied. Changes can be saved to non-
volatile memory (NVRAM).
• Operations Command Menu
Operations-level commands are used for making immediate and temporary changes to switch configuration.
This menu is used for bringing ports temporarily in and out of service. This menu is available only from an
administrator and operator login.
• Boot Options Menu
The Boot Options Menu is available only from an administrator login. This menu is used for upgrading switch
software, selecting configuration blocks, and for resetting the switch when necessary. This menu is also used
to set the switch back to factory settings.
• Maintenance Menu
This menu is used for debugging purposes, enabling you to generate a technical support dump of the critical
state information in the switch, and to clear entries in the Forwarding Database and the Address Resolution
Protocol (ARP). This menu is available only from an administrator and operator login.
