CLI Command Conventions
When entering commands there are certain command entry standards that apply to all commands. The following
table describes the command conventions.
Copying and Pasting Text
Up to 1000 lines of text (i.e., commands) can be copied and pasted into the device.
Note
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the text copied into the device consists of legal commands only.
This feature is dependent on the baud rate of the device.
Note
The default device baud rate is 115,200
When copying and pasting commands from a configuration file, make sure that the following conditions exist:
• A device Configuration mode has been accessed.
• The commands contain no encrypted data, like encrypted passwords or keys. Encrypted data cannot be
copied and pasted into the device.
Convention Description
[ ] In a command line, square brackets indicates an optional entry.
{ } In a command line, curly brackets indicate a selection of compulsory parameters
separated by the | character. One option must be selected. For example: flowcontrol
{auto|on|off} means that for the flowcontrol command either auto, on or off must be
selected.
Italic font Indicates a parameter.
Indicates an individual key on the keyboard. For example, indicates the Enter
key.
Ctrl+F4 Any combination keys pressed simultaneously on the keyboard.
Screen Display Indicates system messages and prompts appearing on the console.
all When a parameter is required to define a range of ports or parameters and all is an
option, the default for the command is all when no parameters are defined. For
example, the command interface range port-channel has the option of either entering
a range of channels, or selecting all. When the command is entered without a
parameter, it automatically defaults to all.
