User Manual for the NETGEAR 7200 Series Layer 2 Managed Switch Software

Annotations

The CLI allows the user to type single-line annotations at the command prompt for use when
writing test or configuration scripts and for better readability. The exclamation point ('!') character
flags the beginning of a comment. The comment flag character can begin a word anywhere on the
command line and all input following this character is ignored. Any command line that begins
with the character '!' is recognized as a comment line and ignored by the parser.
