Description

 

 

 

 

 

Syntax

 

Evaluate the syntax provided and supply the appropriate values.

 

 

 

Placeholders for values you must supply appear in angle brackets.

 

 

 

Example:

 

 

 

Enable RIPIP using:

 

 

 

SETDefault !<port> -RIPIP CONTrol = Listen

 

 

 

In this example, you must supply a port number for <port>.

 

 

 

 

Commands

Enter the command exactly as shown in text and press the Return or

 

 

 

Enter key. Example:

 

 

 

To remove the IP address, enter:

 

 

 

SETDefault !0 -IP NETaddr = 0.0.0.0

 

 

 

This guide always gives the full form of a command in uppercase and

 

 

 

 

 

 

lowercase letters. However, you can abbreviate commands by

 

 

 

entering only the uppercase letters and the appropriate value.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Commands are not case-sensitive.

The words “enter”

When you see the word “enter” in this guide, you must type

something, and then press the Return or Enter key. Do not press the

Referred to by their labels, such as “the Return key” or “the

 

 

 

Escape key”

 

 

 

Written with brackets, such as [Return] or [Esc].

 

 

 

If you must press two or more keys simultaneously, the key names

 

 

 

are linked with a plus sign (+). Example:

 

 

 

Press [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Del].

 

 

 

 

Menu commands
