ETS to EDS command comparison

I have an ETS terminal server that I am replacing with an EDS. What commands can I use at the EDS's CLI to configure it so it will work similarly to the ETS?


While there are only two command levels on the ETSs, non-privileged and privileged, the EDS's CLI is organized into multiple levels. When you first log into the EDS's CLI you will be at the equivalent of the non-privileged level on an ETS.

To run commands you need to navigate to the correct level. The first level up is the Enable level, from which the other levels are available. The Enable level can be password protected.

In the table below, each line in the "EDS Command" column represents the name of a level, with the last line being the command to be run at the final level in the list. 'Exit' drops back to the previous level so a new level can be accessed.

For more information on EDS commands, see the command reference for your model of EDS, available from:
