Hi all,

Can anyone who has experince of the Cisco 851W/871W SOHO router tell me if it has a CLI like a regular Cisco router such as the 2600, 2800 series etc? Or, is it all HTML driven? Thanks.

Hi David

From the data sheets for the 851W & 871W routers

=============================================

Management Features

? Cisco SDM

? Management of LAN switch ports

? Cisco Configuration Express

? Cisco Configuration Engine support

? DSL firmware update from Flash

? Cisco Service Assurance Agent (SAA)

? Telnet, Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMPv3), CLI, and HTTP management

? RADIUS and TACACS+

=============================================

As you can see CLI is available. The SDM web interface is designed for people with little or no experience of Cisco IOS but you can still telnet / console in and use the CLI if that is what you want.

HTH
