General navigation commands
When you enter "?" at any point in the CLI session, the system retrieves
help information for whatever portion of the command you entered thus far.
See "help command" (page 89) for more information.
The system records the last command in a CLI session. However, the last
command is not saved across reboots.
Add the word no to the beginning of most CLI configuration commands to
clear or remove the parameters of the actual command. For example, when
you enter the command ip address 192.32.154.126, you set the IP
address. However, when you enter no ip address, the system returns
the IP address to zero. See Appendix "Command List" (page 353) for an
alphabetical list of no commands.
Add the word default to the beginning of most CLI configuration
commands to set the parameters of the command to the factory default
values. See Appendix "Command List" (page 353) for an alphabetical list of
default commands.
When you enter a portion of the command and press the [Tab] key, the
system finds the first unambiguous match of a command and displays that
command. For example, if you enter down+[Tab], the system displays
download.
