Using the CLI
Conventions Used
The following conventions are used in this manual to convey instructions and information:
•
Mandatory keywords are in boldface.
•
Variables that you supply are in pointed brackets <>.
•
Optional keywords are in square brackets [].
•
Alternative but mandatory keywords are grouped in braces {} and separated by a
vertical bar |.
•
If you enter an alphanumeric string of two words or more, enclose the string in inverted
commas.
•
Information displayed on screen is displayed in text font.
CLI Help
The CLI has its own Help utility. Use the following key sequences to operate the CLI Help:
•
To display all commands available in a command mode a question mark.
•
To display all commands starting with a certain string, type the first few letters followed
by a question mark.
•
To get help containing all command parameters with their legal values as well as its
syntax and an example, type a question mark at the end of command or at the stage
where it is unique.
•
Use the Tab key to complete an unambiguous command.
Example: W310> show?
Command Line Prompt
The command prompt is not hierarchical in structure. If you wish to use several commands,
each beginning with the same keyword, you must retype all parts of the command each time.
For example, if after you want to set the system contact and the system name you must type
both set system contact and set system name. However, you can use command abbreviations.
