Listeners
=========

The ``listeners`` command is used to manager active and stopped listeners. This command provides the capability to view listener configuration, stop active listeners, view failure messages, and initialize queued channels.

When initializing a channel, you will be shown a list of pending channels, of which you can select and define a platform name. After specifying a platform, a session will be established with the channel and you will have the option of initializing other queue channels.
