ARRIS C4 Configuration
ARRIS C4 Configuration, The Command Line Interface (CLI) is the software tool used to provide users with administrative control of the CMTS after hardware installation is complete — whether from the console or through a remote network connection.
The CLI is a straightforward command interface in which commands are typed on a single line and executed by pressing the Enter key. The CLI provides command help, command completion, and keyboard sequences that enable a user to navigate a command line and scroll through a buffer that contains recently entered commands. The CLI enables system operators to enter the commands needed to add, anage, display, and remove hardware modules, networks, users, and other system entities.
