Command Usage Instructions
• Commands are not case-sensitive.
• Use the horizontal arrow-keys . and . to move the cursor within the command you are
entering.
• Use the backspace key (provided you are using a terminal that sends the BS (8) character
when the backspace key is pressed) to delete chars from the command you are
entering.
• Use the vertical arrow-keys . and . to scroll through a command history buffer of the
latest 20 commands issued.
• If using a terminal that supports <home> and <end> keys (e.g., HyperTerminal), use
these keys to move the cursor to respectively the start of the command line and the end
of the command line.
Commands
Tab le A - 1 shows general parameter types used in command syntaxes and descriptions.
Note: The following command types use port IDs versus the port number (i.e., the physical number of the port).
Port numbers (“port #”=”port ID”-1) are used when discussing Ethernet switch ports. For example, VLAN port
ID 1 is the same as Ethernet switch port 0.
