Navigating the CLI

The Dell Networking OS displays a CLI prompt comprised of the host name and CLI mode.
• Host name is the initial part of the prompt and is "Dell" by default. You can change the host name with
the hostname command.
• CLI mode is the second part of the prompt and reflects the current CLI mode. For a list of the Dell
Networking OS command modes, refer to the command mode list in the
Line section.

Using the Keyword no Command

To disable, delete or return to default values, use the no form of the commands.

delete it from the running configuration. In this guide, the no form of the command is described in the
Syntax portion of the command description.

regular expression, the resulting output either excludes or includes those parameters.
