Press the Enter key to execute a command after you type it in.
•
A port range is either a single port number, or a list of port numbers
separated by commas or hyphens. For example,
3
is port
3
;
3,7
are
ports
3
and
7; 3-5
are ports
3
,
4
, and
5
; and
3-5,7
are ports
3,4,5,
and 7.
•
To quit any command, press the Control-C keys (^C or Ctrl-C).
•
You can abbreviate any command where there is no ambiguity; if there
is ambiguity, LCM responds with an error message.
•
Commands are not case sensitive.
•
Any invalid commands or misspellings will receive an error message.
•
A previous command can be repeated by typing
!!
.
•
MAC addresses are displayed in little-endian Ethernet bit order, with
each octet separated by a colon. For example:
FN10 >address 00:40:27:04:1a:0f
