Guardian Commands and OSS Equivalents
Table 12 lists Guardian commands and their OSS equivalents. Not all Guardian commands have
a corresponding OSS command, and not all OSS commands have a Guardian equivalent. For
this reason, not all Guardian and OSS commands appear in the table.
NOTE: Information in brackets ([ ]) indicates a series of command steps.
