Operating System Software Reference C613-50003-00 REV E Software Version 5.2.1
Introduction
This chapter introduces a number of commonly-used management features of the AlliedWare
Plus
TM
operating system (OS).
1. Set the console baud rate
The default baud rate is 9600.
By default the AlliedWare Plus
TM
OS supports VT100 compatible terminals on the console
port. This means that the terminal size is 80 columns by 24 rows.
2. Login with manager/friend
The defaults are:
username: manager
password: friend
The switch logs you into User Exec mode. From User Exec mode, you can perform high-level
diagnostics (some show commands, ping, traceroute etc), start sessions (Telnet, SSH), and
change mode.

Software Version 5.2.1 AlliedWare Plus
TM
Operating System Software Reference C613-50003-00 REV E 1.3
How to get command help
The following kinds of command help are available:
■ lists of valid parameters with brief descriptions (the ? key)
■ completion of keywords (the Tab key)
■ error messages for incomplete or incorrect syntax
Command
Abbreviations
The AlliedWare Plus CLI accepts abbreviations for commands. For example, the following
command is an abbreviation for the show interface command:
sh in vlan100
View a list of valid
parameters
To get syntax help, type ? after:
■ the prompt, to list all commands available in the mode you are in
■ one or more parameters, to list parameters that can come next in the partial command
■ one or more letters of a parameter, to list matching parameters
Note: The AlliedWare Plus OS only displays one screenful of text at a time, with the
prompt “--More--” at the end of each screenful. Press the space bar to display the next
screenful or the Q key to return to the command prompt.
Example To see which commands are available in User Exec mode, enter “?” at the User Exec mode
command prompt:
awplus>?
This results in the following output:
Exec commands:
clear Reset functions
disable Turn off privileged mode command
echo Echo a string
enable Turn on privileged mode command
exit End current mode and down to previous mode
help Description of the interactive help system
logout Exit from the EXEC
mstat Show statistics after multiple multicast traceroutes
mtrace Trace multicast path from source to destination
ping Send echo messages
quit Exit current mode and down to previous mode
remote-command Remote stack member command execution
show Show running system information
ssh Open an SSH connection
telnet Open a telnet connection
terminal Set terminal line parameters
traceroute Trace route to destination
Example To see which show commands that start with “i” are available in User Exec mode, enter “?”
after show i:
awplus>show i?

TM
Operating System Software Reference C613-50003-00 REV E Software Version 5.2.1
This results in the following output:
interface The layer2 interfaces
ip Internet Protocol (IP)
ipv6 Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6)
Example To use the ? help to work out the syntax for the clock timezone command, enter the following
sequence of commands:
awplus(config)#clock ?
summer-time Manage summer-time
timezone Set clock timezone
awplus(config)#clock timezone ?
TIMEZONE Timezone name, up to 5 characters
awplus(config)#clock timezone NZST ?
minus negative offset
plus positive offset
awplus(config)#clock timezone NZST plus ?
<0-12> Time zone offset to UTC
awplus(config)#clock timezone NZST plus 12
The above example demonstrates that the ? help only indicates what you can type next. For
commands that have a series of parameters, like clock timezone, the ? help does not make the
number of parameters obvious.
Complete
keywords
To complete keywords, type Tab after part of the command.
If only one keyword matches the partial command, the AlliedWare Plus OS fills in that
keyword. If multiple keywords match, it lists them.
Example To use Tab completion to enter the command show ip dhcp server summary, enter the
following commands. We have included “<Tab>” to show where to type the Tab key—it is
not displayed on screen.
awplus>show ip <Tab>
as-path-access-list bgp community-list
dhcp dhcp-relay domain-list
domain-name extcommunity-list filter
forwarding igmp interface
irdp mroute mvif
name-server nat ospf
pim protocols rip
route rpf
awplus>show ip d<Tab>
dhcp dhcp-relay domain-list domain-name
awplus>show ip dhcp <Tab>
binding pool server
awplus>show ip dhcp server s<Tab>
statistics summary
awplus>show ip dhcp server su<Tab>mmary

View command
messages
The switch displays the following generic error messages about command input:
% Incomplete command—this message indicates that the command requires more
parameters. Use the ? help to find out what other parameters are available.
awplus(config)#interface
interface
% Incomplete command.
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker—this indicates that the switch could not process the
command you entered. The switch also prints the command and marks the first invalid
character by putting a '^' under it. Note that you may get this error if you enter a command in
the wrong mode, as the following output shows.
awplus#interface port1.0.1
interface port1.0.1
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
% Unrecognized command—when you try to use ? help and get this message, it indicates that
the switch can not provide help on the command because it does not recognize it. This means
the command does not exist, or that you have entered it in the wrong mode, as the following
output shows.
awplus#interface ?
% Unrecognized command
The AlliedWare Plus OS does not tell you when commands are successful. If it does not display
an error message, you can assume the command was successful.

How to work with command modes
The following figure shows the command mode hierarchy and the commands to use to move
to lower-level modes.
Multiple users can telnet and issue commands using the Exec mode and the Privileged Exec
mode. However, only one user is allowed to use the Configure mode at a time. This prevents
multiple users from issuing configuration commands simultaneously.
Figure 1-1:
User Exec mode User Exec mode is the mode you log into on the switch.
It lets you perform high-level diagnostics (show commands, ping, traceroute etc), start sessions
(Telnet, SSH), and change mode.
The default User Exec mode prompt is awplus>.
Privileged Exec
mode
To change from User Exec to Privileged Exec mode, enter the command:
awplus>enable
Privileged Exec mode is the main mode for monitoring—for example, running show
commands and debugging. From Privileged Exec mode, you can do all the commands from
User Exec mode plus many system commands.
The default Privileged Exec mode prompt is awplus#.

Global
Configuration
mode
To change from Privileged Exec to Global Configuration mode, enter the command:
awplus#configure terminal
From Global Configuration mode, you can configure most aspects of the switch.
The default Global Configuration mode prompt is awplus(config)#.
Lower-level
configuration
modes
A number of features are configured by entering a lower-level mode from Global Configuration
mode. The following table lists these features.
Some protocols have commands in both Global Configuration mode and lower-level
configuration modes. For example, to configure MSTP, you use:
■ Global Configuration mode to select MSTP as the spanning tree mode
■ MST mode to create instances and specify other MSTP settings
■ Interface Configuration mode to associate the instances with the appropriate ports.
Returning to
higher-level
modes
The following figure shows the commands to use to move from a lower-level mode to a
higher-level mode.
Mode What it configures Command Default prompt
Interface Switch ports, VLANs, the management Eth port. interface name awplus(config-if)#
Class map QoS classes, which isolate and name specific
traffic flows (classes) from all other traffic.

Entering
Privileged Exec
commands when
in a configuration
mode
When you are configuring the switch, you are likely to want to enter show commands to
confirm the configuration. This can mean you change often between configuration modes and
Privileged Exec mode.
However, you can run Privileged Exec commands without changing mode, by using the
command:
do <command you want to run>
You cannot use the ? help to find out command syntax when using the do command.

Example To display information about the IP interfaces when in Global Configuration mode, enter the
command:
awplus(config)#do show ip int brief
This results in the following output:
Interface IP-Address Status Protocol
eth0 unassigned admin up running
How to see the current configuration
The current configuration is called the running-config. To see
it, enter the following command in either Privileged Exec
mode or any configuration mode:
awplus#show running-config
To see only part of the current configuration, enter the
command:
awplus#show running-config |include <word>
This displays only the lines that contain word.
To start the display at a particular place, enter the command:
awplus#show running-config |begin <word>
This searches the running-config for the first instance of word and begins the display with that
line.
Tip:
show running-config
works in all modes
except User Exec mode.

Default settings
When the switch first starts up with the AlliedWare Plus OS, it applies default settings and
copies these defaults dynamically into its running-config.
These default settings mean that the AlliedWare Plus OS:
■ encrypts passwords, such as user passwords
■ records log message priority in log messages
■ turns on jumbo frame support for all ports
■ turns on the telnet server so that you can telnet to the switch
■ enables the switch to look up domain names (but for domain name lookups to work, you
have to configure a DNS server)
■ turns off L3 multicast packet switching in the switch’s hardware. This prevents L3 multicasts
from flooding the switch’s CPU in its default state as an L2 switch
■ sets the maximum number of ECMP routes to 8
■ turns on RSTP on all ports. Note that the ports are not set to be edge ports
■ sets all the switch ports to access mode. This means they are untagged ports, suitable for
connecting to hosts
■ creates VLAN
1
and adds all the switch ports to it
■ allows logins on the serial console port
■ allows logins on VTY sessions (for telnet etc)
■ has switching enabled, so layer 2 traffic is forwarded appropriately without further
configuration
■ allocates all the routing table memory space to IPv4 routes (instead of IPv6 routes)
■ has ports set to autonegotiate their speed and duplex mode
■ has copper ports set to auto MDI/MDI-X mode
