6.3 Basic principles for using CLI commands
In this section, the CLI command names are written in bold. CLI parameters are written in
italics and must be replaced by appropriate values (e.g., names or numbers). If a command
has several parameters, the order of these must be strictly observed.
The parameters of a command may be mandatory, optional or a selection of values (see
Table “Structure of CLI commands” on page 58).
