Define Ports, only one will be shown (in this case, Set Ports).
Restrictions Privileged commands containing the specified keyword will only be displayed
if you are currently the privileged user.
Parameters keyword

12.4.2 Backwards
Switches sessions from the current session to the most recently started previous session. If there is only one
active session, it resumes. Repeating the command will cycle you “backward” through the active sessions.
If you search the beginning of the session list, entering this command returns you to the most recent session.
