When working with routers and switches from different vendors like Cisco, Juniper, Nokia, and Huawei, it's essential to understand the differences in their command-line interfaces (CLI). This document will give you a comparison of some common commands.
Key Points to Remember
1. Syntax Differences: Each vendor has its own syntax and command structure. Familiarize yourself with the specific syntax to avoid configuration errors.
2. Configuration Modes: The way you enter and exit configuration modes can vary. For example, Cisco uses configure terminal, while Huawei uses system-view.
3. Saving Configurations: The commands to save configurations differ. Cisco uses write memory, Juniper uses commit, Nokia uses admin save, and Huawei uses save.
4. Documentation and Resources: Always refer to the official documentation and command reference guides provided by each vendor. They are invaluable for troubleshooting and advanced configurations.
5. Consistency in Naming: Interface and routing commands often have similar names but different implementations. Pay attention to the exact command structure.
6. Vendor-Specific Features: Each vendor may have unique features and capabilities. Understanding these can help you leverage the full potential of the devices.
By keeping these points in mind, you can effectively manage and configure network devices from different vendors. If you have any specific scenarios or commands you need help with, feel free to ask in our experts section!
