Parameters preceded by an asterisk indicate a wildcard. They may use an "*", a range (2-5), or a list
(1,2,5,7,9).
Braces and a vertical line within brackets indicate a required choice within an optional entry.
A vertical bar (the "pipe" symbol) separates entries within brackets or braces. You may select only
one from the key list:
[first | second | third]
Values are required for both the slot and port. They must be separated by a slash.
Parameters preceded by an asterisk indicate a wildcard.
IP addresses
and host names
Wherever an IP address is required, you can enter a host name provided you have configured a
DNS server or put the name and address into the DNS Local Host Table.
You can create a script file—a text file containing CLI commands—to simplify repetitive tasks.
Designating MAC addresses and IP addresses
Some commands require a Media Access Control (MAC) address or Internet Protocol (IP) address, which must be entered
in standard form. The CLI displays MAC addresses in the following formats:
1111.2222.3333 a0b1c2d3e4f5
a0b1.c2d3.e4f5 a0:b1:c2:d3:e4:f5
IPv6 addresses use the standard conventions: Hex digits are case insensitive, leading zeros are optional, a pair of colons
indicate successive 0’s have been dropped and only one pair of colons can be used. The following represents the same IPv6
address:
4012:0000:240E:0000:0000:0AC0:3428:121C
4021:0:240E::AC0:3428:121C
4021:0:240e::ac0:3428:121c
