Using CLI Commands

This section introduces some useful shortcuts and command-related highlights. These
include:

Abbreviated Commands

Remember, you can abbreviate keywords to save time if you enter at least enough
leading characters to uniquely identify the desired keyword. For example:
This abbreviation is for the command ip redirects. The string ip re is enough
information for the CLI to identify the command you are using. See the section "Using
Help" on page 63 for additional information.
