CLI Command Conventions
The following table describes the command syntax conventions.
Conventions 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.
Any individual key on the keyboard. For example click
.
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.
interface-id This indicates a port, VLAN or LAG. The syntax for
interface_id is as follows:
{
port_type } port-number |{ vlan } vlan-id | { port-channel }
LAG-number
