Document Conventions

 

Within Cisco IOS software documentation, the term router is generally used to refer to a variety of Cisco

 

products (for example, routers, access servers, and switches). Routers, access servers, and other

 

networking devices that support Cisco IOS software are shown interchangeably within examples. These

 

products are used only for illustrative purposes; that is, an example that shows one product does not

 

necessarily indicate that other products are not supported.

 

The Cisco IOS documentation set uses the following conventions:

 

 

Convention

Description

 

 

^ or Ctrl

The ^ and Ctrl symbols represent the Control key. For example, the key combination ^D or Ctrl-D

 

means hold down the Control key while you press the D key. Keys are indicated in capital letters but

 

are not case sensitive.

 

 

string

A string is a nonquoted set of characters shown in italics. For example, when setting an SNMP

 

community string to public, do not use quotation marks around the string or the string will include the

 

quotation marks.
