The following section documents all the valid options, suboptions, and their arguments along with a

• If a suboption is not specified for an option, all valid suboption values are displayed for the option.
If suboptions are specified, then only those suboptions are reported.

username and suboptions such as commstring and hostname can take an
empty string as input.
