Command Line Processing
Commands are not case sensitive. You can abbreviate commands and
parameters as long as they contain enough letters to differentiate them
from any other currently available commands or parameters. You can use
the Tab key to complete partial commands, or enter a partial command
followed by the “?” character to display a list of possible matches. You can
also use the following editing keystrokes for command-line processing:
VLAN vlan database Console(config-vlan) 4-231
MSTP spanning-tree
mst-configuration
Console(config-mstp)# 4-214
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5
