mi functions can be used in control commands that can be sent via fifo 
file, unix/datagram socket or xmlrpc. We start to deprecate them in 
favour of RPC control interface.

One option to run mi commands is via kamctl:

kamctl fifo command params

Examples:

kamctl fifo ps
kamctl fifo uptime

To see what mi commands are available:

kamctl fifo which

With 3.0+ you can use sercmd as well, e.g.,:

sercmd> mi which
sercmd> mi ps

Cheers,
Daniel
