Understanding the User Interface

Understanding the User Interface

This chapter describes the ATM switch router user interface and provides instructions for using the command-line interface (CLI).

Note This chapter provides advanced configuration instructions for the Catalyst 8540 MSR, Catalyst 8510 MSR, and LightStream 1010 ATM switch routers. For complete descriptions of the commands mentioned in this chapter, refer to the ATM Switch Router Command Reference publication.

The following sections are included:

User Interface Overview

The user interface for the ATM switch router provides access to several different command modes, each with related commands. Users familiar with the Cisco IOS user interface will find the interfaces very similar. This chapter describes how to access and list the commands available in each command mode, and explains the primary uses for each command mode.

For security purposes, the user interface provides two levels of command access: user and privileged. The unprivileged user mode is called user EXEC mode; the privileged mode is called privileged EXEC mode, and requires a password.

Note Because all commands available in user EXEC mode are also available in privileged EXEC mode, user EXEC mode is referred to as EXEC mode in this guide.

From the privileged level, you can access global configuration mode; from global configuration mode you can access numerous submodes that allow you to configure specific, related features. Read-only memory (ROM) monitor mode accesses a basic system kernel to which the ATM switch router may default at startup if it does not find a valid system image, or if its configuration file is corrupted.

You can enter commands in uppercase, lowercase, or a mix of both. Only passwords are case sensitive. You can abbreviate commands and keywords to a minimum unique string of characters. For example, you can abbreviate the show command to sh. After entering the command line at the system prompt, press the Return key to execute the command.

Almost every configuration command has a no form. In general, use the no form to disable a feature or function. Use the command without the no keyword to reenable a disabled feature or enable a feature disabled by default.

Note Refer to the ATM Switch Router Command Reference publication for the complete syntax of commands specific to the ATM switch router and a description of the function of the no form of a command. Refer to the Configuration Fundamentals Command Reference publication for the complete syntax of other IOS commands.

Accessing Each Command Mode

This section describes how to access the command modes for the ATM switch router. Table 2-1 and Table 2-2 list the command modes, access to each mode, the prompt you see while in that mode, the main uses for each configuration mode, and the method to exit that mode. The prompts listed assume the default ATM switch router name "Switch." Table 2-1 and Table 2-2 might not include all of the possible ways to access or exit each command mode.

Summary of Additional Command Modes (Catalyst 8540)

EXEC Mode

When you log in to the ATM switch router, you are in user EXEC, or simply EXEC, command mode. The EXEC commands available at the user level are a subset of those available at the privileged level. In general, the user-level EXEC commands allow you to connect to remote devices, change terminal settings on a temporary basis, perform basic tests, and list system information.

The user-level prompt consists of the ATM switch router's host name followed by the angle bracket (>):

Switch>

The default host name is Switch, unless it has been changed during using the hostname global configuration command.

Privileged EXEC Mode

The privileged EXEC command set includes all user-level EXEC mode commands and the configure command, through which you can access global configuration mode and the remaining configuration submodes. Privilege EXEC mode also includes high-level testing commands, such as debug, and commands that display potentially secure information.

To enter privileged EXEC mode from EXEC mode, use the enable command and enter your password; the prompt changes to the ATM switch router's host name followed by the pound sign (#):

Switch> enable
Password:
Switch#

To exit from privileged EXEC mode back to EXEC mode, use the disable command.

Switch# disable
Switch>

The system administrator uses the enable password global configuration command to set the password, which is case sensitive. If an enable password has not been set, privileged EXEC mode can only be accessed from the console.

ROM Monitor Mode

ROM monitor mode provides access to a basic system kernel, from which you can boot the ATM switch router or perform diagnostic tests. If a valid system image is not found, or if the configuration file is corrupted, the system might enter ROM monitor mode. The ROM monitor prompt is the angle bracket:

>

You can also enter ROM monitor mode by intentionally interrupting the boot sequence with the Break key during loading. For a description of this process, refer to the Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide.

To return to EXEC mode from ROM monitor mode, use the continue command:

> continue
Switch>

Global Configuration Mode

Global configuration mode provides access to commands that apply to the entire system. From global configuration mode you can also enter the other configuration modes described in the following subsections.

To enter global configuration mode from privileged EXEC mode, enter the configure command and specify the source of the configuration commands at the prompt; the prompt changes to the ATM switch router's hostname followed by (config)#:

Switch# configure
Configuring from terminal, memory, or network [terminal]? <CR>
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#

You can specify either the terminal, nonvolatile memory (NVRAM), or a file stored on a network server as the source of configuration commands. For more information, see the chapter "Managing Configuration Files, System Images, and Functional Images." The default is to enter commands from the terminal console.

As a shortcut for accessing the terminal method of configuration, enter the following:

Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#

To exit global configuration command mode and return to privileged EXEC mode, use the exit or end command, or press Ctrl-Z:

Switch(config)# end
Switch#

Interface Configuration Mode

Interface configuration mode provides access to commands that apply on a per-interface basis. These commands modify the operation of an interface such as an ATM, Ethernet, or asynchronous port.

To enter interface configuration mode from global configuration mode, use the interface command with a keyword indicating the interface type, followed by an interface number; the prompt changes to the ATM switch router's hostname followed by (config-if)#:

Switch(config)# interface atm 3/0/0
Switch(config-if)#

To exit interface configuration mode and return to global configuration mode, use the exit command:

Switch(config-if)# exit
Switch(config)#

To exit interface configuration mode and return to privileged EXEC mode, use the end command or press Ctrl-Z:

Switch(config-if)# end
Switch#
Interface Addressing Formats (Catalyst 8540)

In the ATM switch router chassis, you specify interfaces in slots 0 through 3 and 9 through 12 using the card/subcard/port format. Slots 4 and 8 each contain a CPU (multiservice route processor). Because the configurations on the primary and secondary route processors are automatically synchronized, they are configured via a single network interface, specified as atm0 or ethernet0. There is no need to configure the secondary separately from the primary, but some show commands allow you to display information about the secondary route processor; in these cases, you specify the interface as atm-sec0 or ethernet-sec0. Slots 5 through 7 contain the switch processors, which have no interfaces. Table 2-3 summarizes this addressing scheme.


Table 2-3: Interface Addressing Formats (Catalyst 8540)

The following example shows how to enter interface configuration mode to configure the Ethernet interface on the CPU:

Switch(config)# interface ethernet0
Switch(config-if)#
CPU Interface Address Format (Catalyst 8510 MSR and LightStream 1010)

With this release of the ATM switch router software, addressing the interface on the processor (CPU) has changed. The ATM interface is now called atm0, and the Ethernet interface is now called ethernet0.

The following example shows how to enter interface configuration mode to configure the Ethernet interface on the processor:

Switch(config)# interface ethernet0
Switch(config-if)#
Note The old formats (atm 2/0/0 and ethernet 2/0/0) are still supported in this release.
