The CLI tools are designed to be used in shell scripts for users that prefer Command Line Interface over Web Interface.

To use the CLI tools, establish a SSH connection to the Linux Host, open GUI terminal window (Konsole in KDE, Gnome Terminal in Gnome, etc.), or log in to the text Linux console. You should either log in as root or obtain root permissions after login via {color:blue}su{color} or {color:blue}sudo{color} command.
