Completing the Current Command

[Tab]
You can use to quickly complete the current word in a command. To do
so, type the first few consecutive characters for a command and then press
[Tab]
(with no spaces allowed). If you have typed enough of the word for the
CLI to distinguish it from other options, the CLI completes the current word,
otherwise it displays the available completions.
For example, at the Global Configuration level, if you press
after typing "s", the CLI displays the command that begins with "s". For
example:
ProCurve Acess Point 530(config)# s[Tab]
show
snmp-server
snmpv3
sntp
ssh
stp
Use Shorthand Entries. The CLI accepts abbreviated commands and
options as long as they contain enough characters to be distinguished from
any other currently available commands or options. For example, both of the
following examples will switch to Global Configuration level:
ProCurve Acess Point 530# configure
ProCurve Acess Point 530(config)#
ProCurve Acess Point 530# config
ProCurve Acess Point 530(config)#
Using the Command Line Interface (CLI)
