Chapter 4: Using the CLI Commands
4.1 Overview
The Command Line Interface (CLI) is a set of commands which allows users
to configure or monitor the RAID system by entering lines of text through a
variety of the terminal consoles. The Figure 4-1 depicts how the CLI can be
accessed:
With the embedded CLI, you can get full-function management
capabilities without the need to install any software on your hosts. But you
can access only one system by a terminal at a time.
The login information (login name and password) to the CLI is the same as
the login information for Web GUI of the RAID system to be accessed. 0000 is
the default login password.
4.1.1 Embedded CLI
The embedded CLI can be accessed remotely by the Ethernet (TCP/IP) and
locally by the RS232 terminal. And by Ethernet, you may use Telnet and SSH
(Secure Shell).
Telnet client software is available for all operating systems, and you can
download the SSH client software from the following web sites:
SSHWinClient: http://www.ssh.com/
PuTTY: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
