Usage Guidelines You can obtain help at any point in a command by entering a question mark (?). If nothing matches, the
help list will be empty, and you must back up until entering a ? shows the available options.
Two styles of help are provided:
• Full help is available when you are ready to enter a command argument (for example, show ?) and
describes each possible argument.
• Partial help is provided when you enter an abbreviated command and you want to know what
arguments match the input (for example, show stat?).
Examples The following example shows the output of the help global configuration command:
WAE# configure
WAE(config)# help
