CLI documentation for Stingray?

[julien_2]

Does anyone knows where to find information about the CLI for Stingray Traffic Manager? While there is mention of a CLI in some of the docs, there is no concrete information in the Documentation section.

I need to automate the management of clusters of appliances, and the Control API is based on outdated SOAP (rpc/encoded) that will probably be updated at some point. CLI seem to be the only stable way to go.

Thanks in advance for any information.

HI Julien,

All the help documentation for the CLI is built into the CLI itself using the help keyword. From pages 337-338 of the Stingray User Manual : - describe a command, for example, help Pool.addNodes or help show<br>

If you have something specific in mind, please reply with it and I can help point you in the right direction.

Thanks,

Faisal

If you're on 9.1 and above, you can use the REST API.  In the long term that will be the API of choice for Stingray.
