> # Starting the SRC CLI

> When you log in to the CLI, the privileges for your user account determine which commands and configuration statements you can access. A login account with superuser privileges gives a user access to all commands and statements.

> To log in to a C Series Controller and start the CLI:

> 1. Log in to a C Series Controller through an account that has super-user privileges.

>    | Note: If you enter an incorrect password, you are prompted to enter an LDAP password.

>    For example, to log in to a C Series Controller through an SSH session:

>    `
>    # ssh my_admin@my_cseries_platform
>    `
> 2. Start the CLI:

>        root# cli
>        --- SRC CLI 7.0 build CLI.B.7.0.0.006
>        (c) 2005-2006 Juniper Networks Inc.
>        user@host>

>    The > command prompt shows you are in operational mode. Later, when you enter configuration mode, the prompt will change to #.
