3.2. What is the IPA command-line interface
The IPA command-line interface (CLI) is the basic command-line interface for Identity Management (IdM) administration.

IPA CLI allows you to:
- Add, manage, or remove users, groups, hosts and other objects in the network.
- Manage certificates.
- Search entries.
- Display and list objects.
- Set access rights.
- Get help with the correct command syntax.
