Chapter 1  CLI Configuration

1.1  Introduction to the CLI

H3C series Ethernet switches provide a command line interface (CLI) and commands for you to configure and manage your switches. The CLI is featured by the following:

l           Commands are grouped by level. This prevents unauthorized users from configuring switches with relevant commands.

l           You can gain online help at any time by entering a question mark "?".

l           Common diagnostic utilities (such as Tracert and Ping) are available.

l           A variety of debugging information is available.

l           A function similar to Doskey is provided for you to execute a history command.

l           You can execute a command by entering part of the command in the CLI as long as the keywords you enter do not conflict those of other commands.

1.2  Command Level/Command View

To prevent unauthorized accesses, commands are grouped by level.

Commands fall into four levels: visit, monitor, system, and manage.

l           Visit level: Commands at this level are mainly used to diagnose network and switch the language mode on the user interface, and they cannot be saved in configuration files. Such commands include ping, tracert, and language-mode.

l           Monitor level: Commands at this level are mainly used to maintain the system and diagnose service faults, and they cannot be saved in configuration files. Such commands include display and debugging.

l           System level: Commands at this level are mainly used to configure services. Commands concerning routing and network layers are at this level. These commands can be used to provide network services directly.

l           Manage level: Commands at this level are associated with the basic operation modules and support modules of the system. These commands provide supports for services. Commands concerning file system, FTP/TFTP/XModem downloading, user management, and level setting are at this level.

Users logging in to a switch also fall into four levels, which respectively correspond to the command levels. Users at a specific level can only use the commands at the same level or lower levels.

1.2.1  Switching between User Levels

You can switch from one user level to another by executing a related command and set a password for the switching as required after logging in to a switch.

I. Setting a password for user level switching

Table 1-1 lists the operations to set a password for user level switching.

Table 1-1 Set a password for user level switching

Operation

Command

Description

Enter system view

system-view

Set a password for switching from a lower user level to the user level specified by the level argument

super password [ level level ] { simple | cipher } password

Optional

A password is necessary only when a user switches from a lower user level to a higher user level.

 

II. Switching between user levels

Table 1-2 lists the operation to switch between user levels.

Table 1-2 Switch between user levels

Operation

Command

Description

Switch from the current user level to the user level specified by the level argument

super [ level ]

Required

Execute this command in user view.

If you have set a password for user level switching by using the super password command and you want to switch from a lower user level to a higher user level, you need to enter the correct password. Otherwise, you will remain at the original user level.

 

&  Note:

l      By default, you switch from the current user level to level 3.

l      For the purpose of security, you cannot see the password you enter on the screen. You will remain at the original user level if you fail to enter the correct password after you have tried more than three times.

 

1.2.2  Configuring a Level for a Specific Command in a Specific View

You can configure a level for a specific command in a specific view. Commands fall into four levels: visit, monitor, system, and manage, which are identified as 0, 1, 2, and 3 respectively. The administrator can change the command level according to the requirements..

Table 1-3 lists the operations to configure a level for a specific command.

Table 1-3 Configure a level for a specific command in a specific view

Required

It is forbidden to change the command level at will. Doing so may bring inconvenience to maintenance and operation.

 

1.2.3  CLI Views

CLI views are designed for different configuration tasks. They are related but distinguished. You will enter user view once you log in to a switch successfully, where you can view operation status and statistics information. After executing the system-view command, you can enter system view, where you can go into other views by entering corresponding commands.

1.3  CLI Features

1.3.1  Online Help

CLI provides two types of online help: complete online help and partial online help. You can obtain help information necessary for the switch configuration.

I. Complete online help

Enter a "?" character in any view on your terminal to display all the commands available in the view and their brief descriptions. The following takes user view as an example.

<H3C> ?

User view commands:

  backup             Backup current configuration

  boot               Set boot option

  cd                 Change current directory

  clock              Specify the system clock

  cluster            Run cluster command

  copy               Copy from one file to another

  debugging          Enable system debugging functions

  delete             Delete a file

  dir                List files on a file system

  display            Display current system information

  <omitted>

Enter a command, a space, and a "?" character. If a keyword is in the “?” position of the command, all available keywords and their brief descriptions will be displayed on your terminal. The following takes the clock command as an example.

<H3C> clock ?

  datetime     Specify the time and date

  summer-time  Configure summer time

  timezone     Configure time zone

Enter a command, a space, and a "?" character. If an argument is in the “?” position of the command, all available arguments and their brief descriptions will be displayed on your terminal. The following takes the interface vlan command as an example.

[H3C] interface vlan-interface ?

  <1-4094>  VLAN interface number

[H3C] interface vlan-interface 1 ?

  <cr>

The <cr> string means that no argument is available in the “?” position. You can directly execute the command by pressing <Enter>.

II. Partial online help

Enter a character string followed by a "?" character on your terminal to display all the commands beginning with the string. For example:

<H3C> pi?

   ping

Enter a command, a space, and a character string followed by a "?" character on your terminal to display all the keywords that belong to the command and begin with the string (if available). For example:

<H3C> display ver?

  version

Enter the first several characters of a keyword in a command and then press <Tab>, the complete keyword will be displayed on the terminal screen if the input characters uniquely identify a keyword; all the keywords that match the input characters will be displayed on the terminal screen if the input characters match more than one keyword.

You can use the language-mode command to display the help information in English.

1.3.2  Terminal Display

CLI provides the following display features:

l           The prompt information and help information can be displayed in Chinese or English.

l           Display suspension. That is, the display of output information can be paused when the screen is full and you can then perform one of the three operations listed in Table 1-5 as needed.
