Note
Do not enter the brackets when you enter the command.
The LOOKUP
Command
Entering LOOKUP is a way to get a list of commands, their
corresponding aliases, and descriptions.
Command
Formats
The software allows you to enter commands in three ways:
❑ By entering the complete command
❑ By using a shortcut
❑ By using an alias
Separating Command Words
When you enter any command, you may separate the command
words with a slash (/). For example:
/FDDI/SHOW/SMT
You may also use a space to separate the command words.
Shortcuts
Use a shortcut by typing the first few characters needed to
distinguish the command from others that start with the same
letters, such as:
/FD/SH/SMT
This works unless your shortened version is ambiguous, which
causes an error message to appear.
Aliases
An alias is an abbreviated command that can be accessed from
anywhere in the command line interface. For example, the following
alias is equivalent to the
FDDI/SHOW/SMT command:
fsmt
Aliases are listed in Appendix A, and are also listed in Chapter 5 with
each command description.
