Getting Context Sensitive Help - Motorola RFS7000 Reference Manual

1.2 Getting Context Sensitive Help

Enter a question mark (?) at the system prompt to display a list of commands available for
each mode. Obtain a list of arguments and keywords for any command using the CLI
context-sensitive help.
Use the following commands to obtain help specific to a command mode, command name,
keyword or argument:
Command
(prompt)# help
(prompt)# abbreviated-command-
entry?
(prompt)# abbreviated-command-
entry<Tab>
(prompt)# ?
(prompt)# command ?
(prompt)# command keyword ?
When using context-sensitive help, the space (or lack of a space) before the question mark
(?) is significant. To obtain a list of commands that begin with a particular sequence, enter
the characters followed by a question mark (?). Do not include a space. This form of help
is called word help, because it completes a word.
RFSwitch#service?
service Service Commands
RFSwitch#service
NOTE: The system prompt varies depending on which configuration
mode you are in.
