Chapter 1: Introduction

Text Conventions Important concepts throughout this manual are emphasized with these special text styles:

[Buttons]

Function buttons that appear on a screen ar

 

shown in regular body text and enclosed in

 

square brackets. For example:

 

[Close]

 

[Send]

 

 

Commands

In command lines, type text that appears in

 

this style exactly as shown:

 

avdumpdb

 

BNC OFF

 

Press the <Return> or <Enter> key after all

 

commands.

 

 

Variable

Variable arguments are text that you specify.

Arguments

They are shown in italics. For example:

 

avaccess switch_name

 

In this case, “switch _name” is variable text.

 

To enter the command, type

 

avaccess

 

and then the actual name of the switch.

 

 

...

Ellipses (...) signify that the preceding argu-

 

ment can be repeated a number of times. For

 

example:

 

cat filename...

 

means that you would typ cat followed

 

by one or more filenames.
