Command Line Interface
VBrick network appliances can be configured using a standard ASCII terminal or terminal
emulator program connected to the serial port (COM 2) on the rear of the appliance. Simple
commands are used to configure all functions and features. VBrick currently supports two
command line interfaces: a menu-based CLI and a MIB-based CLI (recommended). The
menu-based CLI can only be used to access VBrick parameters for WM v1.1 and VBDNA
v3.3 or earlier. The MIB-based CLI can be used to access all VBrick parameters—past and
present. (Keep in mind that all parameters that are available in the MIB-based CLI are also
available in the web-based IWS application. Always use IWS unless you have a compelling
reason to use the command line.) You can use Telnet, HyperTerminal, or other interfaces to
run the CLI. For more information see Command Line Interface
on page 49.
