Command Line Interface Overview
The Command Line Interface (CLI) is a feature that provides an alternative to HP EFC
Manager and HP Embedded Web Server (HP EWS) products for director and switch
management capabilities.
The CLI can only be used through a Telnet client session in an out-of-band management
environment, using the Ethernet port in the director or switch. Although the primary use of
the CLI is in host-based scripting environments, the CLI commands can also be entered
directly at a command line. Any hardware platform that supports the Telnet client software
can be used.
The primary purpose of the CLI is to automate management of a large number of switches
with the use of scripts.
Because the CLI is not an interactive interface, no checking is done for pre-existing
conditions and no prompts are displayed to guide the user through a task. If an interactive
interface is needed, the HP EFC Manager or HP EWS products should be used instead of
the CLI.
