display buffers
Purpose Displays the contents of a port buffer, or transfers the contents of a port buffer
to a server running Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP). Port buffering is
enabled by the “set buffer” command (see "set buffer"). Contents are displayed
in log form.
Required permissions For products with two or more users, permissions must be set to one of the
following:
For a user to display the contents of a port buffer for the line on which
they are logged in: “set permissions buffers=r-self” or higher.
For a user to display the contents of a port buffer for any line: “set
permissions buffers=read” or higher.
See "set permissions" for details on setting user permissions for commands.
