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 con
followed by a tab will result in printing the command up to "configure."

Getting Help on Commands

You can display a brief description of the help system by entering the help
command. You can also display command syntax by following a command with the
"?" character to list keywords or parameters.
