Command Syntax

Item

Description

-Options are preceded by a hyphen.

<> Definitions of options are enclosed in angle brackets. For example:

-dp <device password>

[ ]

If a command accepts multiple options or an option accepts mutually exclusive

 

arguments, the values may be enclosed in brackets.

 

 

A vertical line between items enclosed in brackets or angle brackets indicates that

 

the items are mutually exclusive. You must use one of the items.

Example of a command that supports multiple options:

user [-an <admin name>] [-ap <admin password>]

In this example, the user command accepts the option -an, which defines the Administrator user name, and the option -ap, which defines the Administrator password. To change the Administrator user name and password to XYZ:

1.Type the user command, one option, and the argument XYZ: user -ap XYZ

2.After the first command succeeds, type the user command, the second option, and the argument

XYZ:

user -an XYZ

Example of a command that accepts mutually exclusive arguments for an option:

alarmcount -p [all warning critical]

In this example, the option -p accepts only three arguments: all, warning, or critical. For example, to view the number of active critical alarms, type:

alarmcount -p critical

The command will fail if you type an argument that is not specified.
