CLI Command Conventions
When entering commands there are certain command entry standards that apply to all
commands. The following table describes the command conventions.
Copying and Pasting Text
Up to 1000 lines of text (or commands) can be copied and pasted into the device.
It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the text copied into the device consists of legal
commands only.
This feature is dependent on the baud rate of the device.
When copying and pasting commands from a configuration file, make sure that the
following conditions exist:
A device Configuration mode has been accessed.
The commands contain no encrypted data, like encrypted passwords or keys. Encrypted
data cannot be copied and pasted into the device.
ConventionDescription
[ ]In a command line, square brackets indicates an optional entry.
{ }In a command line, curly brackets indicate a selection of compulsory parameters
separated by the | character. One option must be selected. For example: flowcontrol
{auto|on|off} means that for the flowcontrol command either auto, on or off must be
selected.
Italic fontIndicates a parameter.
<Enter> Indicates an individual key on the keyboard. For example, <Enter> indicates
the Enter key.

all — When a parameter is required to define a range of ports or parameters and all is
an option, the default for the command is all when no parameters are defined. For
example, the command interface range port-channel has the option of either entering a
range of channels, or selecting all. When the command is entered without a parameter,
it automatically defaults to all.
