# Command-line Usage

This documents provides examples of how to accomplish various tasks from Isle's
command-line interface.

Isle network members fall into different roles, depending on their level of
involvement and expertise within their particular network. The documentation is
broken down by these categories, so that the reader can easily decide which
documents they need to care about.

### User Docs

Users are members who use network resources, but do not provide any network
resources themselves. Users may be accessing the network from a mobile device,
and so are not expected to be online at any particular moment.

Documentation for users:

* [Joining a Network](./user/join-a-network.md)
* [Working With Multiple Networks](./user/multiple-networks.md)
* [Using DNS](./user/using-dns.md) (advanced)

### Operator Docs

Operators are members who own a dedicated host which they can expect to be
always-online (to the extent that's possible in a residential environment).
Operator hosts will need at least one of the following to be useful:

* A static public IP, or a dynamic public IP with [dDNS][ddns] set up.

* At least 1GB of unused storage which can be reserved for the network.

Operators are expected to be familiar with server administration, and to not be
afraid of a terminal.

Documentation for operators:

* [Configuring Networks](./operator/configuring-networks.md)
* [Contributing Storage](./operator/contributing-storage.md)
* [Contributing a Public Address](./operator/contributing-a-public-address.md)
* [Managing garage](./operator/managing-garage.md)
* [Firewalls](./operator/firewall.md)

### Admin Docs

Admins are members who control membership within the network. They are likely
operators as well.

Documentation for admins:

* [Creating a New Network](./admin/creating-a-new-network.md)
* [Adding a Host to the Network](./admin/adding-a-host-to-the-network.md)
* [Removing a Host from the Network](./admin/removing-a-host-from-the-network.md)
