5.2
Entering Commands
This section describes how to enter CLI commands.
5.2.1
Minimum Abbreviation
The CLI does not accept incomplete commands. For example, the command
"addfreq" can not be entered as add. In exchange, you can get hints from the CLI
by entering "add" folowed by TAB key. If an entry is ambiguous or incorrect, the
system will not prompt for further input, nor inform you if you have entered
incorrect syntax.
5.2.2
Command Completion
If you terminate input with a Tab key, the CLI will print the remaining characters
of a partial keyword up to the point of ambiguity. In the "configure" example,
typing ex followed by a tab will result in printing the command up to "exit."
