¥ All parameters are positional; i.e., each keyword/parameter must be entered in the correct order, as shown in
the command format in this manual.
The command formats shown in this manual follow these conventions:
¥ Items that appear in bold type must be typed exactly as they appear.However, commands can be shortened to
just those characters necessary to make the command unique.
¥ Items that appear in italics are placeholders representing specific information that you supply.
¥ Parameters enclosed in the characters < and > must be entered.
¥ Parameters enclosed in the characters [ and ] are optional.
Sample command responses are shown in this chapter. In many cases, only the command prompt # is returned. If
you have not entered the correct parameters, the syntax of the command is displayed.
? OR HELP
By entering ? or help, you can list the commands at the current level as well as subcommands. At the lowest
subcommand level, entering a ? may return the syntax of the command. Note that some commands require a
character string and the ? will be taken as the character string if entered in that position.
