# ONU command line interface

**Accessing the ONU CLI** To view configuration, you need to access the ONU's CLI, which the Configs button can do in the quick access bar. After opening the output of the current ONU configuration will be shown.

**Basic Commands** The screenshot you've shared shows a set of commands available in the CLI. Here's a rundown of some common ones:

* `show_config` – This command displays the current configuration of the ONU. It’s useful for verifying changes or troubleshooting.
* `show_info -` displays detailed ONU information after registration if the "View config after apply" option was selected. This includes hardware specs, software versions, system uptime, network interfaces, and other crucial information.
* `run <last_applied_action>` - re-apply [action](/configuration-features/custom-action.md). You can also add parameters to the command with the `--parameter_name value.`
* `help` - view all available commands.
* `exit` – This will close the current CLI session.
