Symbols for representing CLI commands
CLI commands generally have one or more parameters that are represented in the syntax
description as follows:
● Mandatory parameters are shown in pointed brackets.
Example: < IP address>
Instead of the parameter shown in italics, you enter the actual value, for the parameter
shown above, for example, you would enter an actual IP address such as
141.120.246.210 .
If you omit a mandatory parameter, most commands output the current value.
● Optional parameters are shown in square brackets.
Example: devname [Device Name]
You can assign a new name with the devname command by setting the parameter
[Device Name]. If the parameter [Device Name] is not set, the current name is displayed.
● Alternative input values are separated by the pipe character ( | ). In this case, you specify
one of the listed values as the parameter.
Example:
You enter either E or D.
● If a numeric value is required as a mandatory parameter, you can also specify a range of
values:
Example: <0 ... 255>
Enter a value between 0 and 255.
