Use the following user interfaces to configure and monitor the JCS 1200 platform:
The JCS management module command-line interface (CLI) is the software interface you use to access and configure the JCS 1200 platform.
The JCS management module CLI is a straightforward command interface. You type commands on a single line, and commands are executed when you press the Enter key. The CLI provides command help and command history.
Unlike the JUNOS CLI, in which configuration commands you enter are stored in a candidate configuration and the changes you add are not activated until you commit the configuration, commands you enter with the JCS management module CLI are activated as soon as you enter the command.
The JCS switch module includes a menu-based interface that runs on the JCS 1200 platform. However, instead of using menus to configure the switch, Juniper Networks provides a script you can use for configuring the switch.
