This guide is intended for the system or network administrator who is responsible

for configuring, using, and managing the routers. It assumes a working

knowledge of wide area network (WAN) operations and familiarity with

communication protocols that are used to interconnect WANs.

according to the rights corresponding to the user name, or based on the rights of

the user-interface. If the two sets of rights conflict, the minimum rights will be

adopted.

By default, the command level of the ping, tracert and telnet commands is

access (level 0), the command level of the display and debugging commands is

monitor (level 1), that of configuration commands is configure (level 2), and the

Views fall into three levels that are, in ascending order:

■ User view (with user level as 0)

■ System view (with user level as 3)

■ Configuration view (routing protocol view, interface view, VPDN group view,

etc)

For the related command, see return.

Example

Switch from Ethernet1/0/0 interface view to system view, and then to user view.

[3Com-Ethernet1/0/0] quit

[3Com] quit

<3Com>

Reboot Syntax

reboot

View

User view

Parameter

None

Description

Using the reboot command, you can reboot the device.

This command produces the same effect as the power is turned on and then on,

but provides the user with a convenient method of rebooting the device from a

remote site.

Basic Configuration Commands 19

The operation of this command will render the network unusable for a short

period of time. So it should be used with caution. Before rebooting the Router,

remember to save the configuration file if necessary,

Example

Reboot the device.

<3Com> reboot

System will reboot! Continue?[Y/N]

return Syntax

return

View

Any view, except user view

Parameter

None

Description

Using the return command, you can return to user view from any other views. The

combination key <Ctrl+Z> performs the same function as the return command.

For the related command, see quit.

Example

Return to user view from system view.

[3Com] return

<3Com>

super Syntax

super [ level ]

View

User view

Parameter

Level: User level ranging from 0 to 3.

Description

Using the super command, you can switch from current user level to a specified

level.

User level refers to the class of a login user. There are 4 user levels corresponding

to 4 command levels. After a user of certain level logs in, it can only use the

commands of the same or lower level.

There are 4 command levels, namely access, monitor, configure and manage, as

follows:

20 CHAPTER 1: CONFIGURATION COMMANDS

■ Access: Include the network diagnosis tool commands (ping, tracert),

commands for accessing an external device from local device (including Telnet

client, SSH client, RLOGIN), etc. Commands of this level cannot perform

configuration file saving operation.

■ Monitor: Commands used for system maintenance, service fault diagnosis and

so on, including the display and debugging commands. Commands of this

level cannot perform configuration file saving operation.

■ Configure: Service configuration commands, including routing commands and

commands of various network layers. Commands of this level provide direct

network services for users.

■ Manage: Commands related to basic system running and system support

modules. These commands provide support for various services. Commands of

this level include file system, FTP, TFTP, Xmodem download and configuration

file switchover commands, power control commands, standby board control

commands, user management commands, level setting commands, system

internal parameter setting commands (not being provided in protocols or RFC

documentation), etc.

To prevent unauthorized users from intruding the system, you must pass the

authentication when you are trying to switch from current user to a higher-level

user. This means that you must enter the password of the higher-level user (if

the super password [ level user-level ] { simple | cipher } line command is

configured). For the sake of security, your entered password is not directly

displayed on the screen. If you enter the correct password within three times,

you will be able to switch to the higher-level user, or you will stay at current

level.

For the related command, see super password.

Example

<3Com> super 3

Password:

User privilege changes to 3 level, just equal or less this level's

commands can be used.

Privilege note: 0-VISIT, 1-MONITOR, 2-SYSTEM, 3-MANAGE

super password Syntax

super password [ level user-level ] { simple | cipher } password

undo super password [ level user-level ]

View

System view

Parameter

user-level: User level ranging from 0 to 3.

simple: Configure simple text password.

cipher: Configure cipher text password.
