Preface

This Guide is intended for network administrator to provide referenced information about CLI (Command Line Interface). The device mentioned in this Guide stands for DeltaStream Chassis Embedded Telecom Power without any explanation. Some models featured in this guide may be unavailable in your country or region. For local sales information, visit https://www.tp-link.com.

Using the CLI

Access the CLI

You can log on to the device and access the CLI by the following two methods:

  • Logon Via the Console Port.
  • Logon By Telnet.

Via the Console Port

Take the following steps to log on to the device via the Console Port.

1. Connect the device's Console port to the management PC using an RJ45 console cable.

2. Start the terminal emulation program (such as the Hyper Terminal) on the PC and configure the terminal emulation program as follows:

  • Baud rate: 115200 bps
  • Data bits: 8
  • Parity: none
  • Stop bits: 1
  • Flow control: none

3. Type the Username and Password in the Hyper Terminal window. The default value for both of them are admin. Press Enter in the main window and “Device>” will appear indicating that you have successfully logged in to the device and you can use the CLI now.

Note: The first time you log in, change the password to better protect your network and devices.

Logon by Telnet

To log on to the device via a Telnet connection, please take the following steps:

1. Connect the device's MGMT port to the management PC. 

Connect the MGMT port to the management PC using an Ethernet cable. Set the IP address of the PC as 192.168.0.x/24 (x is a number between 2 and 254). Open the terminal on the PC. Then type in “telnet 192.168.0.1” and press Enter.

Conventions

Format Conventions

The following conventions are used in this Guide:

  • Items in square brackets [ ] are optional

  • Items in braces { } are required

  • Alternative items are grouped in braces and separated by vertical bars. For example: speed {10 | 100 | 1000 }

  • Bold indicates an unalterable keyword. For example: show logging

  • Normal Font indicates a constant (several options are enumerated and only one can be selected). For example: mode {dynamic | static | permanent}

  • Italic Font indicates a variable (an actual value must be assigned). For example: bridge aging-time aging-time

Special Characters

ou should pay attentions to the description below if the variable is a character string:

  • These six characters ” < > , \ & cannot be input.

  • If a blank is contained in a character string, single or double quotation marks should be used, for example ’hello world’, ”hello world”, and the words in the quotation marks will be identified as a string. Otherwise, the words will be identified as several strings.

Parameter Format

Some parameters must be entered in special formats which are shown as follows:

  • MAC address must be entered in the format of xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.

  • One or several values can be typed for a port-list or a vlan-list using comma to separate. Use a hyphen to designate a range of values, for instance, 1/0/1, 1/0/3-5, 1/0/7 indicates choosing port 1/0/1, 1/0/3, 1/0/4, 1/0/5, 1/0/7.

Menu Commands

Description

The menu command is used to view the supported CLI commands.

Syntax

? 

Example

View supported CLI commands:

DS-EPTA-1U# ?

Set Commands

The set command is used to configure the parameters of the chassis power supply, including the current alarm threshold for each load, the power alarm threshold, and the priority of the two load outputs. An alarm will be triggered if the current or power of a load exceeds the specified thresholds. Note that if the alarm power set for a single load exceeds the total power that the device can provide, the alarm value will be limited to the total power available from the device.

Current

Description

The warning-current command is used to specify current alarm threshold for each load.

Syntax

set {load1|load2} waring-current current-value

Parameter

waring-current——The waring current value.

Example

Specify the alarm current of Load 1 to 25A:

DS-EPTA-1U# set load1 waring-current 25

Power

Description

The warning-load command is used to specify power alarm threshold for each load.

Syntax

set {load1|load2} waring-load load-value

Parameter

waring-load——Alarm power of load.

Example

Specify the alarm power of load 1 to 1000W:

DS-EPTA-1U# set load1 waring-load 1000

Priority

Description

The priority command is used to specify priority for each load.

Syntax

set high-priority {load1|load2}

Example

Specify higher priority to load 1:

DS-EPTA-1U# set  high-priority load1

Show Commands

The show command displays essential information about the power supply, such as the voltage and current of the supplied AC power, power status, hardware version, software version, and the inlet and outlet temperatures. It also provides key details about the power output load. Additionally, this command allows you to view the device's IP address, MAC address and SN (serial number).

Power

Description
