How to suspend/resume listeners during upgrade?

How do you suspend and resume all listeners on the Ironport?

The upgrade documentation states the following in steps 3 & 9 but I can find no functionality to suspend or resume listeners.  I am using the GUI:

Upgrading to the AsyncOS 8.0.1 Release

For the AsyncOS 8.0.1 release, please use the following instructions to upgrade your Email Security

appliance.

Step 1 Save the XML configuration file off the IronPort appliance.

Step 2 If you are using the Safelist/Blocklist feature, export the Safelist/Blocklist database off the IronPort

appliance.

Step 3 Suspend all listeners.

Step 4 Wait for the queue to empty.

Step 5 From the System Administration tab, select the System Upgrade page.

Step 6 Click the Available Upgrades button. The page refreshes with a list of available AsyncOS upgrade

versions.

Step 7 Click the Begin Upgrade button and your upgrade will begin. Answer the questions as they appear.

Step 8 When the upgrade is complete, click the Reboot Now button to reboot your IronPort appliance.

Step 9 Resume all listeners. Upgrading to the AsyncOS 8.0.1 Release

There are suspendlistener and resumelistener CLI commands, log in to command line interface and these commands will prompt you for any required input.
