Using the Volera Command Line Interface (CLI)

In response to customer requests, Excelerator XL 1.0 includes a completely reworked command line interface that those familiar with the CISCO router CLI should find very intuitive.

The following is a brief summary of the Volera CLI.

1. Logging into the system at the command line as user config automatically starts the Volera CLI and places you in Exec mode.

   When the CLI prompt lists the hostname and a pound sign (#), you are working in Exec mode.

2. Typing configure places you in Config mode from which you can modify the device's current configuration.

   Config mode and its associated sub-shells are shown inside parentheses displayed between the hostname and the pound sign.

   For example, the string (conf) shows you are working in Config mode. The string (conf-serv-http-forw-srv1) shows if you are configuring an HTTP forward proxy service for which the first four letters in the name are srv1.

3. The CLI prompt indicates the current mode (Exec or Config) and the command sub-shell when working in Config mode.
4. Typing a question mark (?) displays the commands available in the current context.
