Using the no and default command forms
1
The CLI recognizes a command once you have entered enough characters to make the command
unique. If you enter “conf” within the privileged EXEC mode, the CLI associates the entry with the
configure command, since only the configure command begins with
conf.
In the following example, the CLI recognizes a unique string in the privileged EXEC mode when the
Tab key is pressed:
RFController# conf<Tab>
RFController# configure
When using the command completion feature, the CLI displays the full command name. The
command is not executed until the Return or Enter key is pressed. Modify the command if the full
command was not what you intended in the abbreviation. If entering a set of characters (indicating
more than one command), the system lists all commands beginning with that set of characters.
Enter a question mark (?) to obtain a list of commands beginning with that set of characters. Do
not leave a space between the last letter and the question mark (?).
For example, entering
co? lists all commands available in the current command mode:
RFController# co?
copy? commit
RFController# co
NOTE
The characters entered before the question mark are reprinted to the screen to complete the
command entry.
Deleting entries
Use any of the following keys (or key combinations) to delete command entries:
