Using the Console Switch Installation and Setup
If a command requires parameter values, it prompts you for them. For instance, in the example below, show is the
operator,
portconfig is the switch-attribute, and 7a1 is the parameter indicating that you want to show configuration
information about port
7A1.

If you don’t specify parameters with the command, the console prompts you for an input value and provides a default
value displayed in parenthesis. For example, if you enter
show portconfig without specifying a port (as a parameter),
the following appears.
Smart6500 # show portconfig

In the example above, the default of “all” ports is presented. You can either accept the default by pressing Enter, or
you can enter a specific port number.
Note When you accept the (all) default for show, the information displayed is often
abridged.
