Installation and Initial Configuration Guide

Navigating Through the OPCON Command Line Interface

Question

How do I use the commands in the Command Line Interface?

Answer

The structure of the interface is shown in Figure A-1.

The Access Integration Services Software User's Guide describes the entire command line interface. The basic prompts that you use are the:

• * prompt, which is the OPerating CONsole (OPCON) prompt, the initial entry point to the command line interface

• Config> prompt, which is used for configuration changes

• + prompt, which is known as monitoring or GWCON.

• Config Only> prompt, which is used for initial configuration. The IBM 2212 boots to this prompt if it has not been configured. You cannot access GWCON (+) from the Config Only> prompt.

The basic commands are:

• Type ? and press Enter at any time to view a list of possible commands.

• Type exit and press Enter to return to the + prompt and to the Config> prompt.

• Press the Ctrl-p keys to return to the * prompt.
