About CONFIG Commands

You reach the configuration mode of the command line interface by typing

conﬁgure

(or any truncation of

con-

ﬁgure

, such as

con

conﬁg

) at the CLI SHELL prompt.

CONFIG Mode Prompt

When you are in CONFIG mode, the CLI prompt consists of the name of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway followed

by your current node in the hierarchy and two right angle brackets (>>). For example, when you enter CONFIG

mode (by typing

conﬁg

at the SHELL prompt), the Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>> prompt

reminds you that you are at the top of the CONFIG hierarchy. If you move to the

ip node in the CONFIG hierar-

chy (by typing

ip at the CONFIG prompt), the prompt changes to Netopia-3000/9437188 (ip)>> to

identify your current location.

Some CLI commands are not available until certain conditions are met. For example, you must enable IP for an

interface before you can enter IP settings for that interface.

Navigating the CONFIG Hierarchy

◆ Moving from CONFIG to SHELL — You can navigate from anywhere in the CONFIG hierarchy back to the

SHELL level by entering quit at the CONFIG prompt and pressing Return.

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>> quit

Netopia-3000/9437188 >

◆

Moving from

top

to a subnode — You can navigate from the top node to a subnode by entering the node

name (or the significant letters of the node name) at the CONFIG prompt and pressing R

ETURN. For example,

you move to the IP subnode by entering

ip and pressing RETURN.

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>> ip

Netopia-3000/9437188 (ip)>>

As a shortcut, you can enter the significant letters of the node name in place of the full node name at the CONFIG

prompt. The significant characters of a node name are the letters that uniquely identify the node. For example,

since no other CONFIG node starts with b, you could enter one letter (“

b”) to move to the bridge node.

◆ Jumping down several nodes at once — You can jump down several levels in the CONFIG hierarchy by

entering the complete path to a node.

◆ Moving up one node — You can move up through the CONFIG hierarchy one node at a time by entering the

up command.

◆ Jumping to the top node — You can jump to the top level from anywhere in the CONFIG hierarchy by enter-

ing the

top command.

◆ Moving from one subnode to another — You can move from one subnode to another by entering a partial

path that identifies how far back to climb.

◆ Moving from any subnode to any other subnode — You can move from any subnode to any other subnode

by entering a partial path that starts with a top-level CONFIG command.

◆ Scrolling backward and forward through recent commands — You can use the Up and Down arrow keys

to scroll backward and forward through recent commands you have entered. When the command you want

appears, press Enter to execute it.

Entering Commands in CONFIG Mode

CONFIG commands consist of keywords and arguments. Keywords in a CONFIG command specify the action

you want to take or the entity on which you want to act. Arguments in a CONFIG command specify the values

appropriate to your site. For example, the CONFIG command

1 ... 63 64 65 ... 108
