Commands sometimes have parameters that determine how they’re
saved and when they’re implemented. Some are changed in
the running database so that the new value is used immediately
(the run option).
the NVRAM so that the changes are saved and occur only in the
next session (the nvram option).
both the running and the NVRAM databases (the all option).
To get an explanation of a command’s parameters, add a question
mark (?) after the command name:
SYS_console> set-lt-age ?
set-lt-age sets the LT aging period
[arg #0] database type - either {run|nvram|all}
[arg #1] aging time in seconds
The Console Manager provides a history of the last several
commands. To obtain the last command in the command history,
press ! or
cP at the prompt.
To correct a command line, use the following special keys (see the
help-kbd command):
! or cP - for the previous command
cW - to delete the previous word
cU - to delete the entire line
When you type a command that results in more than one screen of
text appearing, you can press Q to stop the process or any other key
to continue to the next screen.
Finally, you can press T to see the list of commands that start
with the text already typed. For example:
SYS_console> get-c T
Commands matching <get-c>
