The ADTRAN CLI contains help to guide you through the configuration process. Using the
question mark, do any of the following:

Display a list of all subcommands in the current mode. For example:

(config-t1 1/1)#coding ?
ami - Alternate Mark Inversion
b8zs - Bipolar Eight Zero Substitution

Display a list of available commands beginning with certain letter(s). For example:

(config)#ip d?
default-gateway dhcp-server domain-lookup domain-name domain-proxy

Obtain syntax help for a specific command by entering the command, a space, and
then a question mark (?). The ADTRAN CLI displays the range of values and a brief
description of the next parameter expected for that particular command. For
example:

(config-eth 0/1)#mtu ?
<64-1500> - MTU (bytes)

Jump to the beginning of the displayed command line. This shortcut is helpful when using
the no form of commands (when available). For example, pressing at the
following prompt will place the cursor directly after the #:
(config-eth 0/1)#ip address 192.33.55.6

Jump to the end of the displayed command line. For example, pressing at the
following prompt will place the cursor directly after the 6:

(config-eth 0/1)#ip address 192.33.55.6

Clears the current displayed command line. The following provides an example of the
feature:

(config-eth 0/1)#ip address 192.33.55.6 (Press here)
(config-eth 0/1)#

auto finish

You need only enter enough letters to identify a command as unique. For example,
entering int t1 1/1 at the Global configuration prompt provides you access to the
configuration parameters for the specified T1 interface. Entering interface t1 1/1 would
work as well, but is not necessary.
