Switch commands are not case sensitive. You can abbreviate commands and parameters as long as they contain enough letters to be distinguished from any other currently available commands or parameters. The Catalyst enterprise LAN switches are multimodule systems. Commands you enter from the CLI might apply to the entire system or to a specific module, port, or VLAN. You configure the switch using set and clear commands. Enter set commands to change switch parameters. Use clear commands (or, in some cases, set commands) to overwrite or erase configuration parameters. Use show commands to display the current configuration and to monitor the switch. Accessing the Switch CLI You can access the CLI through the supervisor engine console port or through a Telnet session. These sections describe how to access the switch CLI: • Accessing the CLI through the Console Port, page 2-2 • Accessing the CLI through Telnet, page 2-2 Accessing the CLI through the Console Port To access the switch CLI through the console port, you first must connect a console terminal to the console port through an EIA/TIA-232 (RS-232) cable. Make sure the terminal is connected to the switch and that the terminal is on. Note For complete information on how to connect a terminal to the supervisor engine console port, refer to the hardware documentation for your switch. To access the switch CLI through the console port, perform this task: Step 1 Connect to the supervisor engine console port using the appropriate application or commands on the terminal (for example, using a terminal emulation program on a PC or using the tip command on a UNIX system). Step 2 If the switch is not on, power up the switch. The bootup display should appear on the screen (see the “Example Switch Bootup Displays” section on page 2-9). If the switch is already booted, you will see this display: Cisco Systems, Inc. Console Enter password: After you successfully connect to the switch through the console port, you can enter normal-mode commands to monitor the switch or enter privileged mode to change the configuration. For more information, see the “Switch CLI Command Modes” section on page 2-3. Using the Command-Line Interface 2-3 Using the Command-Line Interface Accessing the CLI through Telnet Before you can open a Telnet session to the switch, you must first set the IP address (and in some cases the default gateway) for the switch. For information about setting the IP address and default gateway, see Chapter 3, “Configuring the Switch IP Address and Default Gateway.” Note For more information about using Telnet, see the “Using Telnet” section on page 21-6. To access the switch CLI from a remote host using Telnet, perform this task: Step 1 Make sure the switch is on and is properly configured with an IP address and default gateway, if necessary. Step 2 Using the appropriate application or command on your host system, Telnet to the switch using the IP address or DNS hostname of the switch. (You must configure DNS properly on the switch and on your network name server in order to use DNS hostnames. For more information on DNS, see Chapter 36, “Configuring DNS.”) unix_host% telnet Catalyst_1 Trying 172.16.10.10... Connected to Catalyst_1. Escape character is '^]'. Cisco Systems Console Enter password: After you successfully connect to the switch using Telnet, you can enter normal-mode commands to monitor the switch or enter privileged mode to change the configuration. For more information, see the “Switch CLI Command Modes” section on page 2-3. Switch CLI Command Modes The switch CLI supports two modes of operation: normal (also called login or user mode) and privileged (also called enable mode). Both modes are password protected. Use normal-mode commands for system monitoring. Use privileged-mode commands to change the system configuration. Note For complete information on configuring passwords and controlling access to the switch, see Chapter 30, “Controlling Access to the Switch Using Authentication.” To enter normal command mode, perform this task: Step 1 Connect to the switch CLI through the console port or using Telnet (for more information, see the “Accessing the Switch CLI” section on page 2-2). Accessing Help Software Configuration Guide—Release 5.2 2-4 Step 2 On a new switch, the normal-mode password is null. If you are connecting to a new switch, press Return at the Enter Password prompt. Otherwise, enter the normal-mode password for the switch. You will see the user level command-line prompt: Enter Password: <normal_mode_password> Console> Step 3 To disconnect from the switch CLI, use the exit command. Console> exit Session Disconnected... Cisco Systems Console Fri Aug 27 1999, 16:14:41 Enter password: Many commands (for example, commands that modify the configuration) can be entered only in privileged mode. To enter privileged command mode, perform this task: Step 1 From normal mode, enter the enable command. On a new switch, the privileged-mode password is null. If you are connecting to a new switch, press Return at the Enter Password prompt. Otherwise, enter the privileged-mode password for the switch. Console> enable Enter password: <privileged_mode_password> Console> (enable) Step 2 To exit privileged mode and return to normal mode, use the disable command. Console> (enable) disable Console> Accessing Help Enter help or ? in normal or privileged mode to see the commands available in those modes. Command usage, the help menu, and when appropriate, parameter ranges are provided if you enter a command using the wrong number of arguments or inappropriate arguments. Additionally, appending ? to a command displays a list of valid keywords and arguments for the command. Insert a space between the last parameter and the question mark (?). For example, eight parameters are used by the set mls command. To see these parameters, enter set mls ? at the privileged prompt. The system displays all valid keywords and arguments as follows: Console> (enable) set mls ? agingtime Set agingtime for MLS cache entry disable Disable MLS in the switch enable Enable MLS in the switch nde Configure Netflow Data Export flow Set minimum flow mask include Include MLS-RP multicast Set MLS feature for multicast statistics Add protocols to protocol statistics list Console> (enable) set mls Note that the system repeats the command you entered without the ?. Using the Command-Line Interface 2-5 Using the Command-Line Interface To use the partial-keyword-lookup function, enter ? to display a list of commands that begin with a specific set of characters. Do not insert a space between the last letter of the variable and the question mark (?). For example, enter co? at the privileged prompt to display a list of commands that start with co. The system displays all commands that begin with co as follows: Console> (enable) co? configure Configure system from network copy Copy files between TFTP/RCP/module/flash devices Console> (enable) co Note that the system repeats the command you entered without the ?. Command Line Editing The switch CLI supports a number of command line editing keystrokes. Table 2-1 lists the keystrokes you can use when entering and editing switch commands. History Substitution The history buffer stores the last 20 commands you entered during a terminal session. History substitution allows you to repeat these commands using special abbreviated commands, similar to those used on the UNIX command line. Table 2-2 lists the history substitution commands. Table 2-1 Command-Line Editing Keystrokes Keystroke Function Ctrl-A Jumps to the first character of the command line. Ctrl-B or the left arrow key1 1 The arrow keys function only on ANSI-compatible terminals such as VT100s. Moves the cursor back one character. Ctrl-C Escapes and terminates prompts and lengthy tasks. Ctrl-D Deletes the character at the cursor. Ctrl-E Jumps to the end of the current command line. Ctrl-F or the right arrow key1 Moves the cursor forward one character. Ctrl-K Deletes from the cursor to the end of the command line. Ctrl-L; Ctrl-R Repeats current command line on a new line. Ctrl-N or the down arrow key1 Enters next command line in the history buffer. Ctrl-P or the up arrow key1 Enters previous command line in the history buffer. Ctrl-U; Ctrl-X Deletes from the cursor to the beginning of the command line. Ctrl-W Deletes last word typed. Esc B Moves the cursor backward one word. Esc D Deletes from the cursor to the end of the word. Esc F Moves the cursor forward one word. Delete key or Backspace key Erases mistake when entering a command; reenter command after using this key. Abbreviating a Command Software Configuration Guide—Release 5.2 2-6 Abbreviating a Command You can abbreviate commands and keywords to the number of characters that allow a unique abbreviation. You can abbreviate the show command to sh. After entering the command at the system prompt, press Return to execute the command. Completing a Partial Command The Tab key allows you to use the command-completion feature. When you enter a unique partial character string and press the Tab key, the system completes the command or keyword on the command line. For example, if you enter co and press the Tab key, the system completes the command as configure because it is the only command that matches the criteria. Scrolling Down a Line or a Screen When the output of a command fills more than one terminal screen, a ---More--- prompt is displayed at the bottom of the screen. To view the next line or screen, perform these tasks: Note The ---More--- prompt is used for any output that has more lines than can be displayed on the terminal screen, including show command output. Table 2-2 History Substitution Commands Command Function Repeating recent commands: !! Repeat the most recent command. !-nn Repeat the nnth most recent command. !n Repeat command n. !aaa Repeat the command beginning with string aaa. !?aaa Repeat the command containing the string aaa. To modify and repeat the most recent command: ^aaa^bbb Replace the string aaa with the string bbb in the most recent command. To add a string to the end of a previous command and repeat it: !!aaa Add string aaa to the end of the most recent command. !n aaa Add string aaa to the end of command n. !aaa bbb Add string bbb to the end of the command beginning with string aaa. !?aaa bbb Add string bbb to the end of the command containing the string aaa. Task Keystrokes • Scroll down one line. Press the Return key. • Scroll down one screen. Press the Spacebar. Using the Command-Line Interface 2-7 Using the Command-Line Interface Using Command Aliases Like regular commands, aliases are not case sensitive. However, unlike regular commands, some aliases cannot be abbreviated. See Table 2-3 for a list of switch CLI aliases that cannot be abbreviated. Table 2-3 Switch CLI Command Aliases Specifying Modules, Ports, and VLANs Modules, ports, and VLANs are numbered sequentially, beginning with 1. The supervisor engine module is module 1, residing in slot 1. If your Catalyst 5500 series switch has a redundant supervisor engine, the supervisor engines must be installed in slots 1 and 2. To designate a specific module, use the module number. In most systems, the module number and the slot number are the same. However, in some cases the slot number and the module number are different. For example, the Route Switch Feature Card (RSFC) on the supervisor engine is physically in slot 1 or slot 2 but is logically identified as module 15 or module 16. On the fixed-configuration switches, there are two logical modules. However, on the Catalyst 4912G switch and the Catalyst 2948G switch, there are two modules but only one slot. When you enter configuration commands on these switches, you must refer to the module number, not the slot number. For example, all of the user-configurable ports on these switches are logically on module 2. On modules that have user-configurable ports, the left-most port is always port 1. To designate a specific port on a specific module, the command syntax is mod_num/port_num. For example, 3/1 specifies module 3, port 1. On the Catalyst 4912G switch and the Catalyst 2948G switch, the left-most switch port is numbered 2/1 rather than 1/1 because logically the ports are located on module 2. With many commands, you can enter lists of ports. To specify a range of ports, use a comma-separated list (do not insert spaces) to specify individual ports or a hyphen (-) between the port numbers to specify a range of ports. Hyphens take precedence over commas. Table 2-4 shows examples of how to designate ports and port ranges. Alias Command ? help batch configure di show exit quit logout quit Table 2-4 Designating Ports and Port Ranges Example Function 2/1 Specifies port 1 on module 2 3/4-8 Specifies ports 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 on module 3 5/2,5/4,6/10 Specifies ports 2 and 4 on module 5 and port 10 on module 6 3/1-2,4/8 Specifies ports 1 and 2 on module 3 and port 8 on module 4 Specifying MAC Addresses Software Configuration Guide—Release 5.2 2-8 VLANs are identified using the VLAN ID, a single number associated with the VLAN. To specify a list of VLANs, use a comma-separated list (do not insert spaces) to specify individual VLANs or a hyphen (-) between the VLAN numbers to specify a range of VLANs. Table 2-5 shows examples of how to designate VLANs and VLAN ranges. Specifying MAC Addresses Some commands require you to specify a Media Access Control (MAC) address, which must be designated in a standard format. The MAC address format must be six hexadecimal numbers separated by hyphens, as shown in the following example: 00-00-0c-24-d2-fe Specifying IP Addresses, Hostnames, and IP Aliases Some commands require an IP address, IP hostname, or IP alias. The IP address format is 32 bits, written in dotted decimal format, as shown in the following example: 172.16.10.1 If DNS is configured properly on the switch, you can use IP hostnames instead of IP addresses. For information on configuring DNS, see Chapter 36, “Configuring DNS.” In addition, you can configure IP aliases on the switch that you can use in place of IP addresses. IP aliases can be used for most commands that use an IP address, except for commands that define the IP address or IP alias. For information on using IP aliases, see the “Creating and Using IP Aliases” section on page 29-6. ROM Monitor Command-Line Interface The ROM monitor is a ROM-based program that executes when the switch is powered on, reset, or when a fatal exception occurs. The system enters ROM monitor mode if the nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM) configuration is corrupted, if the switch does not find a valid system image or if the configuration register is set to enter ROM monitor mode. From the ROM monitor mode, you can load a system image manually from Flash memory. Note The ROM monitor CLI is present on the Catalyst 4000 family switches, the 2926G series switches, the 2948G switch, and on Catalyst 5000 family Supervisor Engine III and III F. On the Catalyst 5000 family and 2926G series switches, you can enter ROM monitor mode by restarting the switch and pressing the Break key during the first 60 seconds of startup. On the Catalyst 4000 family and the Catalyst 2948G switches, you can enter ROM monitor mode by pressing Control-C within the first five seconds of startup. Table 2-5 Designating VLANs and VLAN Ranges Example Function 10 Specifies VLAN 10 5,10,15 Specifies VLANs 5, 10, and 15 10-50,500 Specifies VLANs 10 through 50, inclusive, and VLAN 500 Using the Command-Line Interface 2-9 Using the Command-Line Interface Note The Break key is always enabled for 60 seconds after rebooting the system, regardless of whether the Break key is configured to be off by configuration register settings. To access the ROM monitor on the Catalyst 5000 family and Catalyst 2926G series switches through a terminal server, you can escape to the Telnet prompt and enter the send break command for your terminal emulation program to break into ROM monitor mode. To access the ROM monitor on the Catalyst 4000 family and Catalyst 2948G switches through a terminal server, you can escape to the Telnet prompt and press Control-C to break into ROM monitor mode. Once you are in ROM monitor mode, the prompt changes to rommon>. Use the ? command to see the available ROM monitor commands. Note For complete descriptions of all ROM monitor commands, refer to the Command Reference for your switch.
