Synchronous Information Output

Synchronous information output allows you to continue your operations from where you were stopped

when your input is interrupted.
To enable synchronous information output, use the info-center synchronous command. For more

information about synchronous information output, see Information Center Configuration in the System

Volume.

undo Form of a Command

Adding the keyword undo can form an undo command. Almost every configuration command has an
undo form. undo commands are generally used to restore the system default, disable a function or
remove a configuration. For example, the info-center enable command is used to enable the
information center, while the undo info-center enable command is used to disable the information
center. (By default, the information center is enabled.)

Editing Features

The CLI provides the basic command editing functions and supports multi-line editing. When you execute

a command, the system automatically goes to the next line if the maximum length of the command is
reached. You cannot press Enter to go to the next line; otherwise, the system automatically executes the
command. The maximum length of each command is 510 characters.

Table 5

lists these functions.

Displays history commands

Tab

Pressing Tab after entering part of a keyword enables the fuzzy help
function.

If finding a unique match, the system substitutes the complete
keyword for the incomplete one and displays it in the next line.

When there are several matches, if you repeatedly press Tab, all
the keywords starting with the letter that you enter are displayed in

cycles.

If there is no match at all, the system does not modify the incomplete
keyword and displays it again in the next line.

NOTE:

When editing the command line, use other shortcut keys (For details, see

Table 2

) besides the shortcut keys

defined in

Table 5

, or define shortcut keys by yourself. (For details, see

Configuring CLI Hotkeys

.)
