D-Link DES-3326S Layer 3 Switch CLI Reference
Figure 2-3. Example Command Parameter Help
In this case, the command config account was entered with the parameter <username>. The CLI will then
prompt you to enter the <username> with the message, Next possible completions:. Every command in the
CLI has this feature, and complex commands have several layers of parameter prompting.
In addition, after typing any given command plus one space, you can see all of the next possible sub-commands,
in sequential order, by repeatedly pressing the Tab key.
To re-enter the previous command at the command prompt, press the up arrow cursor key. The previous
command will appear at the command prompt.
Figure 2-4. Using the Up Arrow to Re-enter a Command
In the above example, the command config account was entered without the required parameter <username>,
the CLI returned the Next possible completions: <username> prompt. The up arrow cursor control key was
pressed to re-enter the previous command (config account) at the command prompt. Now the appropriate User
name can be entered and the config account command re-executed.
