Debug RCE applications with the console
The default console application is usually stored as image 0 in the configuration flash and can be loaded by setting the front panel boot selector to 0 and by resetting the RC element. The console application provides three servers, each one with different functionality and each one accessed through a different UNIX application:1.

Where <exename> is the file name, in the local UNIX file system, of the application which is currently running in the RCE and that that is being debugged. The application above will show a command line prompt if the connection to <hostname> is successful. Currently the following commands may be issued through this command line:

Note that the <nbytes> arguments in the commands above indicates the maximum number of bytes contained in the packet payload. The actual number of payload bytes is a flat distribution random number between 0 and <nbytes>.3.
