Appliance Mode

Hi all,

 

I have a number of questions regarding Appliance Mode. Unfortunately I've no way of testing it's operation, hence this request. Here goes;

 

  • Is the Advanced Shell available by the admin user through the serial console at all? I'm guessing not but for some reason I've got this idea in my head.
  • Can all/some Linux/BASH commands be run from tmsh?
  • Can the these commands be run from tmsh or with an alternative tmsh command?
  • -config
  • -bigtop
  • -bigstart
  • -imish
  • -tcpdump (yes, I know the GUI is an alternative)
  • -openssl
  • -tclsh
  • -zebos
  • -rdexec
  • -rdsh
  • How do you copy files to/from the device using scp/sftp?

Thanks in advance.
