1.1.3 Abbreviating Commands
You can abbreviate commands and keywords to the number of characters
that allow a unique abbreviation. For example, you can abbreviate the show
command to sh or the show running-config command to sh ru.
1.1.4 Using the No and Default Forms of Commands
Almost every configuration command has a no form. In general, use the no form
to
•
Disable a feature or function.
• Reset a command to its default values.
• Reverse the action of a command. For example, the no shutdown
command reverses the shutdown of an interface.
Use the command without the no form to reenable a disabled feature or to
reverse the action of a no command.
Configuration commands can also have a default form. The default form of a
command returns the command setting to its default.
1.1.5 Redisplaying a Command
To redisplay a command you previously entered, press the up-arrow key. You
can continue to press the up-arrow key for more commands.
1.1.6 Getting Help
Entering a question mark (?) at the system prompt displays a list of commands
for each command mode. You can also get a list of any command’s associated
keywords and arguments with the context-sensitive help feature.
The following are the commands to get help specific to a command mode, a
command, a keyword, or an argument:
•
help—Obtain a brief description of the help system in any command mode.
ASUS> help
• abbreviated-command-entry ?—Obtain a list of commands that begin with a
particular character string.
