Getting Help
Use the question mark (?) and the arrow keys to help you enter commands:
• For a list of available commands, enter a question mark (?):
acs/admin# ?
• To complete a command, enter a few known characters before ? (with no space):
acs/admin# s?
acs/admin(config-GigabitEthernet)# ip address 172.16.0.1 ?
<A.B.C.D> Network mask
acs/admin(config-GigabitEthernet)# ip address 172.16.0.1
Enter the keyword or
argument that you want to
use. This example uses the
172.16.0.1 IP address.
Enter ? to display what you
must enter next on the
command line. In this
example, you must enter a
network mask.
A carriage return <cr> does
not display; therefore, you
must enter additional
arguments to complete the
command.
acs/admin(config-GigabitEthernet)# ip address 172.16.0.1
255.255.255.224 ?
<cr> Carriage Return
acs/admin(config-GigabitEthernet)# ip address 172.16.0.1
255.255.255.224
Enter the network mask.
This example uses the
255.255.255.224 IP
address.
Enter ? to display what you
must enter next on the
command line. In this
example, you can press
Enter.
A carriage return <cr>
