This product interacts with or is built with the other Oracle products listedin this section. Click below to view information about the accessibility ofthese dependent products. Products listed are the versions available at thetime of publication of this document; newer documents may be available that supersedethese versions.
Oracle's policy is to design, develop and test both products and documentation to be accessible. The recommended styles of testing for accessibility include: (i) algorithmic automated tests, (ii) human judgement tests such as tool-assisted tests, visual inspection and manual operation, and (iii) testing with assistive technology by people with and without disabilities. Additional information about Oracle's accessibility program is available on http://www.oracle.com/corporate/accessibility/index.html

Criteria | Conformance Level | Remarks and Explanations |
|---|---|---|
| 1.1.1 Non-text Content (Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 1.2.1 Audio-only and Video-only (Prerecorded) (Level A) | Not Applicable | The product has no multimedia. |
| 1.2.2 Captions (Prerecorded) (Level A) | Not Applicable | The product has no multimedia. |

| 1.3.1 Info and Relationships (Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 1.3.2 Meaningful Sequence(Level A) | Supports | Content is presented in response to CLI commands issued. Content can be broadly classified into non-table and table formats. Non-table formats include content that usually spans not more than one row of information. This satisfies the rule of a meaningful sequence. Table formats include content that usually spans more than one row of information.In this case, rows of the table are presented sequentially with the first row indicating the fields of the table, and subsequent rows indicating content formatted as per the first row. |
| 1.3.3 Sensory Characteristics(Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 1.4.1 Use of Color(Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 1.4.2 Audio Control(Level A) | Not Applicable | The product has no multimedia. |
| 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum) (Level AA) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 1.4.4 Resize text(Level AA) | Not Applicable | Text size is controlled by whatever third party tool is being used, example : telnet or ssh. Text size is solely customizable by the end user and is not under the control of the CLI. |
| 1.4.5 Images of Text(Level AA) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 2.1.1 Keyboard(Level A) | Supports | The CLI is keyboard only and location is clearly indicated. The CLI does not change any accessibility features provided by the underlying OS. It respects sticky keys, filter keys and toggle keys, and high contrast settings. |
| 2.1.2 No Keyboard Trap (Level A) | Supports | The Product was tested for: Movement of focus through each control only using the keyboard, with no "keyboard trap" that prevents focus from moving away from any control |
| 2.2.1 Timing Adjustable(Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 2.2.2 Pause, Stop, Hide (Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 2.3.1 Three Flashes or Below Threshold(Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 2.4.1 Bypass Blocks(Level A) | Supports | Oracle non-Web software products, including bundles and suites of software, do not behave as a set of software programs as the term is defined. Therefore this guideline is always automatically met. |
| 2.4.2 Page Titled(Level A) | Not Applicable | There is no binary specifically dedicated to this function. In the Linux-based versions, most SBC application level entities including the acli run out of a single binary currently named "usbc". The CLI can have a customized banner, on startup |
| 2.4.3 Focus Order(Level A) | Supports | The Product was tested for:
|
| 2.4.4 Link Purpose (In Context)(Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|

| 2.4.7 Focus Visible(Level AA) | Supports | The CLI interface supplies focus through its cursor, there are no other elements. |
| 3.1.1 Language of Page(Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 3.1.2 Language of Parts(Level AA) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 3.2.1 On Focus(Level A) | Supports | Apart from displaying information (in response to a CLI command) the only other change of focus may occur when the user requests a system reboot either directly (through a CLI command), or runs a CLI command that results in a system reboot. In both cases, there is no change of context unless it is user initiated. |
| 3.2.2 On Input(Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 3.2.3 Consistent Navigation(Level AA) | Supports | Oracle non-Web software products, including bundles and suites of software, do not behave as a set of software programs as the term is defined. Therefore this guideline is always automatically met. |
| 3.2.4 Consistent Identification(Level AA) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 3.3.1 Error Identification(Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 3.3.2 Labels or Instructions (Level A) | Supports | The product was tested for:

| 3.3.3 Error Suggestion (Level AA) | Supports | The product was tested for:
|
| 3.3.4 Error Prevention (Legal, Financial, Data)(Level AA) | Supports | There are no legal commitments or financial transactions that occur for the user. In terms of data entered by the user, the CLI only accepts single commands by the user; there is no facility for the user to enter data and then check it before submitting. The user will need to re-run the command again, in case it is incorrect. The user may enter incomplete commands and have the CLI auto-complete them, but if the spelling of the respective command is wrong, the CLI will be unable to correct it or prompt the user to correct it while it is being entered. |
