Using Technician Interface Scripts
The Technician Interface scripts are programs that let you manage the router using
information stored in the Management Information Base (MIB). You can use the
scripts to display information about protocols and network services and to enable
or disable protocols, circuits, lines, and services.
You access the Technician Interface scripts using the following commands:
•
show displays system configuration, state, and statistical information. This
command helps you isolate problems such as circuits that are not working,
packets that are not being forwarded, and so on.
•
monitor displays the same information as the show command but refreshes
the display periodically so you can examine trends and changes.
•
enable/disable enables or disables system features, protocols, drivers, or
individual circuits.
•
menu provides a menu interface to the other scripts. You can also use the
menu-building features of this script to create custom menus.
