  Example:
  $ stratos.sh  -u admin@wso2.org   -p admin123

  The log-in help will be shown, if you have provided wrong parameters to log-in.
  As mentioned previously, the password is prompted only if the password argument is not passed.

• Once you have successfully logged in, you can use the help command to get an idea of the various actions that can be carried out via the interactive command line shell interface named Stratos .

Single command line mode

•  In this mode the user can execute commands in one line. 

  Code Block
  $ stratos.sh -u admin@wso2.org -p admin123 [action]

  You can call the command directly with action. It will not show the stratos> prompt and fulfill the request of command immediately for particular action command. This mode is useful for automating your interaction with Stratos2. 
  
  

• In this mode the user can call the command as follows:

  Code Block
  $ stratos.sh -u [username] -p [password] [action commands]

  The user can export the username and password to the environment and execute commands.
