Entering the Technician Level

This level is can only be accessed from the Privileged and Supervisor levels not from
the User level.
This feature is for use by Avaya Technical Support only.

Getting Help

On-line help may be obtained at any time by typing a question mark (?), or the
word help on the command line or by pressing the F1 key. To obtain help for a
specific command, type the command followed by a space and a question mark.
Example:
P460-1> show ?
P460-1> help show

Command Syntax

Commands are not case-sensitive. That is, uppercase and lowercase characters may
be interchanged freely.

Command Abbreviations

All commands and parameters in the CLI can be truncated to an abbreviation of any
length, as long as the abbreviation is not ambiguous. For example, version can
be abbreviated ver.
For ambiguous commands, type the beginning letters on the command line and
then use the TAB key to toggle through all the possible commands beginning with
these letters.
