Execute commands directly

Last published : Oct 16, 2026
Use the Scout Command Interface to directly execute various types of commands such as
  • Scout commands for device remote management
  • Console communication commands
  • Import devices
  • Create, rename and delete OUs
  • Delete devices
Further functions such as Adding/Modifying configurations are available via the File processing commands.
Note:
To show the command syntax and optional parameters, run the program without parameters.
For all commands, specify the user name, password and domain for logging on to the server, so that a command call is initiated with:
scmd -u[ser] Username -p[assword] Password [-d[omain] Domain]
To use pass-through authentication, skip the user specification.
Note:
Remember that text files to which you refer must be located in the program directory or specified with a fully-qualified path.
