Context-Sensitive Help; Command-Specific Help - Avaya Advanced Gateway 2330 Manual

CLI fundamentals
timeout value of 0 seconds will prevent other users from entering the configuration mode
indefinitely . To work around this issue, enter the debug clear_clisession command.
To avoid this issue, you can also configure the console timeout (using the
console_timeout command).
Alternatively, if the active session that is locking other users out of the configuration mode
is a Telnet session, you can disconnect the session using the clear telnet_session
command.
Use the show users command to identify the session to be cleared.

Context-sensitive help

The CLI provides text-based, context-sensitive help. To access this help, enter a question mark
(?) at the current command level, or after typing a partial or full command string. The CLI
displays the commands available at that level, or the options available for the specified
command.
The following figure shows a sample output for the show ? command.
In addition, you can also manually scroll through the options available at the current command
level or to complete a particular command string by repeatedly pressing the Tab key.

Command-specific help

The help <cmd> command displays help for the command specified in <cmd>. This help
provides the same description of command options available through context-sensitive help.
However, command-specific help also provides a description of the command itself, as well as
the correct syntax required for the command.
The following figure shows a sample output for the help configure command.
