BCC Quick Reference
Getting Started
The Bay Command Console (BCC
™
) uses a hierarchical tree configuration model similar to a DOS hierarchy of
directories and files. The tree contains:
•
Objects:
Physical or logical entities you can configure. An
ethernet
interface or the protocol
ip
is an object.
Each object that you configure has a unique BCC identifier, for example, ethernet/2/1 or ip/1.2.3.4/255.0.0.0.
•
Parameters:
Describe characteristics and behavior of an object; for example,
slot
,
connector
, and
bofl
are
parameters of
ethernet
. Each parameter has a value:
slot 4
,
connector 1
, and
bofl off
are parameter-value
pairs.
Sample Configuration
Proceed as follows to start using the BCC:
• To enter BCC configuration mode, type
config
at the bcc> prompt.
• To see any commands that you can enter next at the current prompt, enter the question mark (
?
) command.
• To see usage (syntax) or options for a specific command, add the question mark (
?
) to that command,
for example:
ethernet ?
or
show ?
or
show ip routes ?
• To configure any object available at your current location in the tree, enter the object name (such as
ethernet
).
Note:
Carefully follow the syntax and details of any BCC usage Help prompting you for more complete
information. Note especially where you can insert slash (
/
) characters.
• To see parameter values for the object you just configured, enter
info
.
• To see all values for any parameter configurable from your current context, enter
<parameter>
?
,
for example, in an
ethernet
context, enter
bofl ?
• To see statistical information, enter
show
commands in
any
BCC mode. (First enter
show ?
)
• To see the entire device configuration, enter
show config -all
• To see an explanation of all options for
show config
, enter
show config ?
or
help show config
• To list objects already configured at the next (branch) level of the device configuration tree, enter
lso
• To move one level back toward the root level of the device configuration, enter
back
• To move back to root (box# or stack#) level from any location in the device configuration tree, enter
box
(AN/ANH, ARN, BN) or
stack
(ASN or System 5000).
• To see your current location in the device configuration, enter
pwc
(print working context).
• To exit configuration mode, type
exit
. To exit the BCC and return to the Technician Interface prompt, type
exit
again. To log out of the router, type
logout
.
