17.1. Command Conventions
Most commands described in this section conform to the following conventions:
• Text Interface: Commands discussed in this section, can only be invoked via the
Text Interface. These commands cannot be invoked via the Web Browser Interface.
• Slash Character: Most AFS-16 Text Interface commands begin with the Slash
Character ( /).
• Apply Command to All Circuits: When an asterisk is entered as the argument of
the /T (Toggle), /TA (Toggle to A) or /TB commands (Toggle to B) the command
will be applied to all circuits. For example, to switch all circuits to "A", type
/TA * [Enter].
• Circuit Name Wild Card: It is not always necessary to enter the entire circuit
name. Circuit names can be abbreviated in command lines by entering the first
character(s) of the name followed by an asterisk (
*). For example, a circuit named
"SERVER" could be specified as " S*". Note however, that this command would also
be applied to any other circuit name that begins with an "S".
• Suppress Command Confirmation Prompt: When the commands are invoked,
the " ,Y" option can be included to override the Command Confirmation ("Sure?")
prompt. For example, to switch Circuit 4 to the "B" position without displaying the
Sure prompt, type
/TB 4,Y [Enter].
• Enter Key: Most commands are invoked by pressing [Enter].
