New Commands in the Proteus and Adonis Administration Console


for Proteus 3.7.1 and Adonis 6.7.1
The Proteus and Adonis Administration Console features a new command line interface (CLI). The new CLI allows for the configuration of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and gateways, tab completion on all static keywords and dynamic input values, context specific keyword help, consistent configuration operators for entering user configurations, and scripting of configuration operations. Best of all, the new CLI is unified on both Proteus and Adonis. This Quick Reference Guide highlights key commands to help you get familiar with the new Administration Console. For complete details on all commands and parameters, please refer to the Proteus and Adonis Administration Guides.
Certain items such as firewall and IPMI, must still be configured using the old CLI. Use the configure additional command to modify parameters for these items.
