4.1 Using the Command Line Interface for
4Motion System Management
All 4Motion system components are managed via the NPU module. The AU is not
accessed directly: any configuration change or status enquiry is sent to the NPU
that communicates with other system components.
The following system management options are available:
 Accessing the Command Line Interface (CLI) locally via the MON port
 Using Telnet/Secure Shell (SSH) to access the CLI
The CLI is a configuration and management tool that you can use to configure and
operate the 4Motion system, either locally or remotely, via Telnet/SSH. The
following are some administrative procedures to be executed using the CLI:
 Specifying the boot mode to be used at the next system reset
 Selecting the connectivity mode
 Shutting down/resetting 4Motion
 Configuring and operating 4Motion
 Monitoring hardware and software components
 Executing debug procedures
 Executing software upgrade procedures
