Using the CEE command line interface (CLI)
2
Table 3 lists the CEE CLI command modes and describes how to access them.
NOTE
At system startup, if you try to enter Privileged EXEC mode before the system has fully booted, the
following message is displayed:
%Info: Please wait. System configuration is being loaded.
After the system has fully booted, a RASLOG message indicates that the CEE CLI is ready to accept
configuration commands.
TABLE 3 CEE CLI command modes
Command
mode
Prompt How to access the command mode Description
EXEC switch> Enter the cmsh command at the
Fabric OS prompt after you have
logged in as an appropriate user.
Display running system information
and set terminal line parameters.
Privileged
EXEC
switch# From the EXEC mode, enter the
enable command.
Display and change system
parameters. Note that this is the
administrative mode and also
includes EXEC mode commands.
Global
configuration
switch(config)# From the EXEC mode, enter the
configure terminal EXEC command.
Configure features that affect the
entire switch.
Interface
configuration
Port-channel:
switch(conf-if-po-63)#
10-Gigabit Ethernet (CEE port):
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#
VLAN:
switch(conf-if-vl-1)#
From the global configuration mode,
specify an interface by entering one
of the following interface types:
• interface port-channel
• interface tengigabitethernet
• interface vlan
Access and configure individual
interfaces.
Protocol
configuration
LLDP:
switch(conf-lldp)#
Spanning-tree:
switch(conf-mstp)#
switch(conf-rstp)#
switch(conf-stp)#
From the global configuration mode,
specify a protocol by entering one of
the following protocol types:
• protocol lldp
• protocol spanning-tree mstp
• protocol spanning-tree rstp
• protocol spanning-tree stp
Access and configure protocols.
