 Note:
z As the Up and Down keys have different meanings in HyperTerminal running on
Windows 9x, these two keys can be used to recall history commands only in
terminals running Windows 3.x or Telnet running in Windows 3.x. You can press
<Ctrl + P> or <Ctrl + N> in Windows 9x to achieve the same purpose.
z If you enter and execute the same command successively for multiple times, only
the first command is saved in the CLI as a history command.
