Command Completion
To make command input easier, you can usually abbreviate each key word in
the command. You need type only enough of each keyword to distinguish it
from similar commands. For example:
could also be entered as:
Three characters (con) represent the shortest abbreviation allowed for
configure. Typing only c or co would not work because there are other
commands (like copy) which also begin with those letters. The configure
command is the only one that begins with con.
As you type, you can press the spacebar or tab to move to the next keyword.
The system will then attempt to expand the abbreviation for you. If there is
only command keyword that matches the abbreviation, it will be filled in for
you automatically. If the abbreviation is too vague (too few characters), the
cursor will not advance and you must type more characters or use the help
feature to list the matching commands.
Command Help
You can use the question mark (?) to get various types of command help.
List Available Commands
When typed at the beginning of a line, the question mark lists all the
commands available in your current mode or sub-mode. A brief explanation
follows each command. For example:
(Alcatel) # configure terminal
(Alcatel) # con t
( host ) > ?
enable Turn on Privileged commands
logout Exit this session. Any unsaved changes are lost.
ping Send ICMP echo packets to a specified IP address.
traceroute Trace route to specified IP address.
