Using CLI interactively

The CLI is an interactive application. When you are logged into the CLI, the CLI waits for a command and then responds to the command.

The following example shows interactively starting an SSH session, logging into the CLI, running a command, and exiting the CLI:

$: ssh manage@<IP-address>
Password:
