Use the

segment

argument to ping a neighbor switch.

Use the

end-to-end

argument to ping a remote end node.

reset dhcp client release [

vcc-id

]

Releases the DHCP lease the Motorola Netopia® Gateway is currently using to acquire the

IP settings for the speciﬁed DSL port. The

vcc-id

identiﬁer is an “index” letter in the

range B-I, and does not directly map to the VCC in use. Enter the

reset dhcp client

release

command without the variable to see the letter assigned to each virtual circuit.

reset dhcp client renew [

vcc-id

]

Releases the DHCP lease the Motorola Netopia® Gateway is currently using to acquire the

IP settings for the speciﬁed DSL port. The

vcc-id

identiﬁer is an “index” letter in the

range B-I, and does not directly map to the VCC in use. Enter the

reset dhcp client

release

without the variable to see the letter assigned to each virtual circuit.

reset dsl

Resets any open DSL connection.

reset ppp

vccn

Resets the point-to-point connection over the speciﬁed virtual circuit. This command only

applies to virtual circuits that use PPP framing.

show atm [all]

Displays ATM statistics for the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. The optional

all

argument

displays a more detailed set of ATM statistics.

show dsl [ all ]

Displays DSL port statistics, such as upstream and downstream connection rates and

noise levels.

About CONFIG Commands

show ppp [{ stats | lcp | ipcp }]

Displays information about open PPP links. You can display a subset of the PPP statistics

by including an optional

stats

,

lcp

, or

ipcp

argument for the

show ppp

command.

start ppp vccn

Opens a PPP link on the speciﬁed virtual circuit.

About CONFIG Commands

You reach the conﬁguration mode of the command line interface by typing

conﬁgure

(or

any truncation of

conﬁgure

, such as

con

or

conﬁg

) at the CLI SHELL prompt.

CONFIG Mode Prompt

When you are in CONFIG mode, the CLI prompt consists of the name of the Motorola Neto-

pia® Gateway followed by your current

node

in the hierarchy and two right angle brackets

(>>). For example, when you enter CONFIG mode (by typing

conﬁg

at the SHELL prompt),

the

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>>

prompt reminds you that you are at the top

of the CONFIG hierarchy. If you move to the

ip

node in the CONFIG hierarchy (by typing

ip

at the CONFIG prompt), the prompt changes to

Netopia-3000/9437188 (ip)>>

to

identify your current location.

Some CLI commands are not available until certain conditions are met. For example, you

must enable IP for an interface before you can enter IP settings for that interface.

Navigating the CONFIG Hierarchy

•

Moving from CONFIG to SHELL

— You can navigate from anywhere in the CONFIG

hierarchy back to the SHELL level by entering

quit

at the CONFIG prompt and pressing

R

ETURN

.

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>>

quit

Netopia-3000/9437188 >

•

Moving from

top

to a subnode

— You can navigate from the top node to a subnode

by entering the node name (or the signiﬁcant letters of the node name) at the CONFIG

Page 188 / 351

188

prompt and pressing R

ETURN

. For example, you move to the IP subnode by entering

ip

and pressing R

ETURN

.

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>>

ip

Netopia-3000/9437188 (ip)>>

As a shortcut, you can enter the signiﬁcant letters of the node name in place of the full

node name at the CONFIG prompt. The signiﬁcant characters of a node name are the let-

ters that uniquely identify the node. For example, since no other CONFIG node starts with

b, you could enter one letter (“

b

”) to move to the bridge node.

•

Jumping down several nodes at once

— You can jump down several levels in the

CONFIG hierarchy by entering the complete path to a node.

•

Moving up one node

— You can move up through the CONFIG hierarchy one node at a

time by entering the

up

command.

•

Jumping to the top node

— You can jump to the top level from anywhere in the CON-

FIG hierarchy by entering the

top

command.

•

Moving from one subnode to another

— You can move from one subnode to another

by entering a partial path that identiﬁes how far back to climb.

•

Moving from any subnode to any other subnode

— You can move from any subnode

to any other subnode by entering a partial path that starts with a top-level CONFIG com-

mand.

•

Scrolling backward and forward through recent commands

— You can use the Up

and Down arrow keys to scroll backward and forward through recent commands you

have entered. When the command you want appears, press Enter to execute it.

Entering Commands in CONFIG Mode

CONFIG commands consist of keywords and arguments. Keywords in a CONFIG command

specify the action you want to take or the entity on which you want to act. Arguments in a

CONFIG command specify the values appropriate to your site. For example, the CONFIG

command

set ip ethernet A

ip_address

consists of two keywords (

ip

,

and

ethernet

A

) and one argument (

ip_address

).

When you use the command to conﬁgure your Gateway, you would replace the argument

with a value appropriate to your site.

For example:

Guidelines: CONFIG Commands

The following table provides guidelines for entering and formatting CONFIG commands.

If a command is ambiguous or miskeyed, the CLI prompts you to enter additional informa-

tion. For example, you must specify which virtual circuit you are conﬁguring when you are

setting up a Motorola Netopia® Gateway.

Displaying Current Gateway Settings

You can use the

view

command to display the current CONFIG settings for your Motorola

Netopia® Gateway. If you enter the

view

command at the top level of the CONFIG hierar-

chy, the CLI displays the settings for all enabled functions. If you enter the

view

command

at an intermediate node, you see settings for that node and its subnodes.

Step Mode: A CLI Conﬁguration Technique

The Motorola Netopia® Gateway command line interface includes a step mode to auto-

mate the process of entering conﬁguration settings. When you use the CONFIG step mode,

the command line interface prompts you for all required and optional information. You can

Rules for entering CONFIG commands

Command verbs

CONFIG commands must start with a command verb (set, view, delete).

You can truncate CONFIG verbs to three characters (set, vie, del).

CONFIG verbs are case-insensitive. You can enter “SET,” “Set,” or “set.”

Keywords

Keywords are case-insensitive. You can enter “Ethernet,” “ETHERNET,” or

“ethernet” as a keyword without changing its meaning.

Keywords can be abbreviated to the length that they are differentiated from

other keywords.

Argument Text

Text strings can be as many as 64 characters long, unless otherwise speci-

ﬁed. In some cases they may be as long as 255 bytes.

Special characters are represented using backslash notation.

Text strings may be enclosed in double (“) or single (‘) quote marks. If the

text string includes an embedded space, it must be enclosed in quotes.

Special characters are represented using backslash notation.

Numbers

Enter numbers as integers, or in hexadecimal, where so noted.

IP addresses

Enter IP addresses in dotted decimal notation (0 to 255).

then enter the conﬁguration values appropriate for your site without having to enter com-

plete CLI commands.

When you are in step mode, the command line interface prompts you to enter required and

optional settings. If a setting has a default value or a current setting, the command line

interface displays the default value for the command in parentheses. If a command has a

limited number of acceptable values, those values are presented in brackets, with each

value separated by a vertical line. For example, the following CLI step command indicates

that the default value is

off

and that valid entries are limited to

on

and

off

.

option (off) [on | off]:

on

You can accept the default value for a ﬁeld by pressing the Return key. To use a different

value, enter it and press Return.

You can enter the CONFIG step mode by entering

set

from the top node of the CONFIG hier-

archy. You can enter step mode for a particular service by entering

set

service_name

.

In stepping set mode (press Control-X <Return/Enter> to exit. For example:

set system

Validating Your Conﬁguration

You can use the

validate

CONFIG command to make sure that your conﬁguration set-

tings have been entered correctly. If you use the

validate

command, the Motorola

Netopia® Gateway veriﬁes that all required settings for all services are present and that

settings are consistent.

Netopia-3000/9437188 (top)>>

validate

Error: Subnet mask is incorrect

Global Validation did not pass inspection!

You can use the

validate

command to verify your conﬁguration settings at any time.

Your Motorola Netopia® Gateway automatically validates your conﬁguration any time you

save a modiﬁed conﬁguration.
