3.7.2 Unordered Parameters
In a given context, the CLI accepts command parameters in any order as long as the 
command is formatted in the proper command keyword and parameter syntax. 
Command completion will still work as long as enough recognizable characters of the 
command are entered.
The following output shows different static-route command syntax and an example 
of the command usage.
