Overview
Use this index to read the 01Layer CLI manual in a practical order. The CLI is
model-aware, so the live 01sh help output remains the source of truth for the
exact commands available on an appliance.
Recommended Reading Path
-
Start here to learn what
01shis, how interactive and non-interactive modes work, how explicit login is handled, and how admin diagnostic startup mode behaves. -
Read this before using the CLI from a serial console or SSH session. It covers
?, command completion, history, command navigation, quoting, and interrupt behavior. -
Read this before running wide tables or long diagnostic output. It covers paging, screen width, post-command filters, and output style.
-
Use this as the command inventory. It records the generated command tree and explains how to inspect exact syntax with
help tree,help search, andhelp detail. -

Notes
- Use
01shin new procedures.l01shand01lshare compatibility aliases. - Commands are backed by workflows, local CLI handlers, and model-specific diagnostics. Availability can differ by appliance model.
- When a command affects power, reboot, firmware, management IP, or hardware state, follow the confirmation prompts and review workflow output before continuing.
