Command Line Interface Client

The Command Line Interface (CLI) Client provides a communication path to the Master Server to enable the execution of commands from local and remote systems. The CLI Client enables commands to be executed in the following environments:

• Windows command line

• UNIX shell such as bash

To execute these commands, the CLI Client establishes a connection to the Master Server through TCP/IP or securely using SSL, or SSH.

The CLI Client operates in the following two modes:

• Single-command mode, which enables you to submit one command at a time

• Interactive mode, which prompts you for commands, maintains a command history, and allows for Jython scripting

When operating in interactive mode, the CLI Client uses the Jython programming language. Jython is a Java implementation of the high-level, dynamic, object-oriented language Python.

Install Jython on any system on which you plan to run the CLI Client in interactive mode. For more information about Jython and to download Jython, visit .
