Command History
CLI maintains a history buffer of the most recent commands you used in the current CLI session for
quick retrieval. Using the keyboard, you can navigate through your last commands, one by one, or all
commands that start with a given prefix. By default, the system saves the last 30 commands you typed.
You can change the number of commands remembered using the history size command.
To use the history functions, use the keys shown in Table 1-7.
