Figure 18   CLI Management over the Network

Refer to “Setting Up Command Line Interface Management” on page 44.

There are two main views in the CLI:

■

This view is shown when you first connect to the switch and shows basic 
information about operation and statistics. The prompt for user view is 
<4500G>

.

■

This view enables you to configure the system parameters. To display this view, 
from user view enter system-view. The prompt for system view is [4500G].

The Switch 4500G supports Secure Shell version 2.0 (SSHv2.0), allowing secure 
access to the switch’s Command Line Interface.

If you use SSH to administer your switch and the network traffic is intercepted, no 
passwords or configuration information will be visible in the data. To securely 
administer the switch using the Command Line Interface you need a third party 
SSH client.

Each switch has an internal set of web pages that allow you to manage the switch 
using a Web browser remotely over an IP network (see Figure 19).
