4.8.2 Completing a Partial Command Name

If you cannot remember a complete command name, press the Tab key to allow the system to complete a partial entry.

Keystrokes	Purpose

Enter the first few letters and press Tab.	Complete a command name.

If your keyboard does not have a Tab key, press Ctrl-I instead.

In the following example, when you enter the letters “conf” and press the Tab key, the system provides the complete command:

Switch# conf<Tab>

Switch# configure

The command is not immediately executed, so that you may modify the command if necessary. If you enter a set of characters that could indicate more than one command, the system simply lists all possible commands.

You may also enter a question mark (?) to obtain a list of commands that begin with that set of characters. Do not leave a space between the last letter entered and the question mark (?). For example, three commands in privileged mode start with co. To see what they are, type co? at the privileged EXEC prompt:

Switch# co? configure copy Switch# co
