3.Repeat Step 2 with the command of interest to view the syntax for any command available in the CLI. For a complete description of all of the CLI commands, see Appendix B.

Tip!____________________________________________________________________________________________________

Help for an individual command is also displayed if the command is entered without the proper arguments.

Tip!____________________________________________________________________________________________________

The tab key can be used to automatically complete words in the CLI. This function works for commands as well as arguments. For example, typing the letter "t" followed by the tab key results in "time" being entered in the command line. Likewise, "da<tab>" auto-completes to the "date" command. However, "d<tab>" does not auto-complete, because it is ambiguous between the "date" and "del" commands.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Tip!____________________________________________________________________________________________________

To display a list of sub-commands and arguments for any command, press the tap key twice after entering the command. (A space is required between the command and the <tab><tab>.) For example, type "filter add <tab><tab>" to display a list of all the arguments that can be used to complete the command.
