HP 200 Unified Threat Management (UTM) Appliance manual Controlling the CLI output

Viewing history commands

You can use arrow keys to access history commands in Windows 200x and Windows XP Terminal or Telnet. In Windows 9x HyperTerminal, the arrow keys are invalid, and you must use Ctrl+P and Ctrl+N instead.

To view command history, use one of the following methods:

TaskCommand

Display all commands in the command history display history-command [ { begin exclude include }

buffer.	regular-expression ]
Display the previous history command.	Up arrow key or Ctrl+P
Display the next history command.	Down arrow key or Ctrl+N

Setting the command history buffer size for user interfaces

Step		Command	Remarks
1.	Enter system view.	system-view	N/A
2.	Enter user interface view.	user-interface { first-num1
		[ last-num1] { console vty }	N/A

first-num2 [ last-num2 ] }

3. Set the maximum number of
commands that can be saved	history-command max-size
in the command history	size-value
buffer.

Optional.

By default, the command history buffer can save up to 10 commands.

Controlling the CLI output

This section describes the CLI output control features that help you quickly identify the desired output.

Pausing between screens of output

If the output being displayed is more than will fit on one screen, the system automatically pauses after displaying a screen. By default, up to 24 lines can be displayed on a screen. To change the screen length, use the screen-length screen-lengthcommand. For more information about this command, see Getting Started Command Reference. To control output, use keys in Table 26.
