Entering and Editing Commands
When entering commands:
• The CLI is not case sensitive.
• You can enter partial CLI keywords.
• You must enter the minimum number of letters to uniquely identify a command. For example,
cl
cannot be entered as a partial keyword because both the clock and class-map commands begin with
the letters “cl.”
clo, however, can be entered as a partial keyword because only one command
begins with those three letters.
• The TAB key auto-completes keywords in commands. You must enter the minimum number of letters
to uniquely identify a command.
• The UP and DOWN arrow keys display previously entered commands (see Command History in the
Configuration Fundamentals chapter).
• The BACKSPACE and DELETE keys erase the previous letter.
• Key combinations are available to move quickly across the command line, as described in Table 2-2,
"Short-Cut Keys and their Actions," in Configuration Fundamentals.
