About This Guide
W elcome to the Enterasys Enterasys Matrix® N Standalone (NSA) Series Configuration Guide. This
manual explains how to access the device’s Command Line Interface (CLI) and how to use it to
configure Matrix Series switch/router devices.
Important Notice
Depending on the firmware version used in your Matrix Series device, some featur es described in
this document may not be supported. Refer to the Release Notes shipped with your Matrix Series

management applications is helpful before configuring the Matrix Series device.
This manual describes how to do the following:
•Access the Matrix Series CLI.
•Use CLI commands to perform network management and device configuration operations.
•Establish and manage Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs).
•Manage static and dynamically-assigned user policies.
•Establish and manage priority classification.
•Configure IP routing and routing protocols, including RIP versions 1 and 2, OSPF, DVMRP,
IRDP, and VRRP.
•Configure security protocols, including 802.1X and RADIUS, SSHv2, MAC locking, MAC
authentication, multiple authentication, DoS attack prevention, and flow setup throttling.
•Configure policy-based routing.
•Configure access control lists (ACLs).

of operation for each port, establish VLAN forwarding (egress) lists, route frames according to
VLAN ID, display the current ports and port types associated with a VLAN and protocol, create a
secure management VLAN, and configure ports on the device as GVRP-aware ports.
Chapter 8, Policy Classification Configuration, describes how to create, change or remove user
roles or profiles based on business-specific use of network services; how to permit or deny access
to specific services by creating and assigning classification rules which map user profiles to frame
filtering policies; how to classify frames to a VLAN or Class of Service (CoS); and how to assign
or unassign ports to policy profiles so that only ports activated for a profile will be allowed to
transmit frames accordingly.

2.1.2CLI “Command Defaults” Descriptions
Each command description in this guide includes a section entitled “Command Defaults” which
contains different information than the factory default settings on the device as described in
Table 2-1 and Table 2-2. The command defaults section de fines CLI behavior if the user enters a
command without typing optional parameters (indicated by square brackets [ ]). For commands
without optional parameters, the defaults section lists “None”. For commands with optional
parameters, this section describes how the CLI responds if the user opts to enter only the keywords
of the command syntax. Figure 2-1 provides an example.

If port-string is not specified, status information for all ports will be displayed.
2.1.3CLI Command Modes
Each command description in this guide includes a section entitled “Command Mode” which states
whether the command is executable in Admin (Super User), Read-Write or Read-Only mode. Users
with Read-Only access will only be permitted to view Read-Only (show) commands. Users with
Read-Write access will be able to modify all modifiable parameters in set and show commands, as

well as view Read-Only commands. Administrators or Super Users will be allowed all Read-W rite
and Read-Only privileges, and will be able to modify local user accounts. The Matrix Series device
indicates which mode a user is logged in as by displaying one of the following prompts:
•Admin: Matrix(su)->
•Read-Write: Matrix(rw)->
•Read-Only: Matrix(ro)->
NOTE: Depending on which Matrix Series device you are using, your default command
prompt may be different than the examples shown.
2.1.4Using WebView
By default WebView (Enterasys Networks’ embedded web server for device configuration and
management tasks) is enabled on TCP port number 80 of the Matrix Series device. You can verify
WebView status, enable or disable WebView, and reset the WebView port as described in the
following section.
Displaying WebView status:
To display WebView status, enter show webview at the CLI command prompt.
This example shows that WebView is enabled on TCP port 80, the default port number.
Matrix(rw)->show webview
WebView is Enabled. Configured listen port is 80.
Enabling / disabling WebView:
T o enable or disable WebV iew , enter set webview {enable o disable} at the CLI command prompt.
This example shows how to enable WebView.
Matrix(rw)->set webview enable
Setting the WebView port:
To set a different TCP port through which to run WebV iew, enter set webview port webview_port
at the CLI command prompt. Webview_port must be a number value from 1 to 65535; specifying
the WebView TCP port.

2.1.6Starting and Navigating the Command Line Interface
2.1.6.1Using a Console Port Connection
NOTE: By default, the Matrix Series device is configured with three user login
accounts: ro for Read-Only access; rw for Read-Write access; and admin for
super-user access to all modifiable parameters. The default password is set to a blank
string. For information on changing these default settings, refer to Section 2.2.1.
Once you have connected a terminal to the local console port as described in your Matrix Series
Installation Guide, the startup screen, Figure 2-2, will display. You can now start the Command
Line Interface (CLI) by
•Using a default user account, as described in Section 2.1.6.2, or
•Using an administratively-assigned user account as described in Section 2.1.6.3.
2.1.6.2Logging in with a Default User Account
If this is the first time your are logging in to the Matrix Series device, or if the default user accounts
have not been administratively changed, proceed as follows:
1. At the login prompt, enter one of the following default user names:
•ro for Read-Only access,
•rw for Read-Write access.
•admin for Super User access.
2. Press ENTER. The Password prompt displays.
3. Leave this string blank and press ENTER. The device information and Matrix prompt displays
as shown in Figure 2-2.

2.1.6.3Logging in with Administratively Configured Account
If the device’s default user account settings have been changed, proceed as follows:
1. At the login prompt, enter your administratively-assigned user name and press ENTER.
2. At the Password prompt, enter your password and press ENTER.
The notice of authorization and the Matrix prompt displays as shown in Figure 2-2.
NOTE: Users with Read-Write (rw) and Read-Only access can use the set password
command (Section 2.2.1.4) to change their own passwords. Administrators with Super
User (su) access can use the set system login command (Section 2.2.1.2) to create
and change user accounts, and the set password command to change any local
account password.
2.1.6.4Using a Telnet Connection
Once the Matrix Series device has a valid IP address, you can establish a Telnet session from any
TCP/IP based node on the network as follows.
1. Telnet to the device’s IP address.
2. Enter login (user name) and password information in one of the following ways:
•If the device’s default login and password settings have not been changed, follow the steps
listed in Section 2.1.6.2, or
•Enter an administratively-configured user name and password.
The notice of authorization and the Matrix prompt displays as shown in Figure 2-2.
For information about setting the IP address, refer to Section 2.2.3.2.
For information about configuring Telnet settings, refer to Section 2.2.7.
Refer to the instructions included with the Telnet application for information about establishing a
Telnet session.

2.1.6.8Displaying Scrolling Screens
If the CLI screen length has been set using the set length command as described in Section 2.2.3.30,
CLI output requiring more than one screen will display
To display additional screen output:
•Press any key other than ENTER to advance the output one screen at a time.
•Press ENTER to advance the output one line at a time.
The example in Figure 2-5 shows how the show mac command indicates that output continues on
more than one screen.
The Matrix Series device allows you to abbreviate CLI commands and keywords down to the
number of characters that will allow for a unique abbreviation. Figure 2-6 shows how to abbreviate
the show netstat command to sh net.

2.1.7Configuring the Line Editor
The command line editor determines which key sequences can be used in the CLI. Example: Ctrl+A
will move the cursor to beginning of the command line when in Emacs mode. The CLI supports
both vi and Emacs-like line editing commands. By default, the “default” line-editing mode is
configured, with no special key sequences. See Table 2-3 lists some commonly used Emacs and vi
commands. Use the set line-editor command (Section 2.1.7.2) to change the line-editor mode.
