MML Commands

MML Commands

To execute MML commands, log in to Cisco HSI and perform one of the following tasks:

•Start the MML session (see the “Starting an MML Session” section on page A-3) and enter a command.

•Type a batch file command to start an MML session (see the “Starting a Batch File” section on page A-4).

MML Command Syntax

	MML commands use the following syntax:
	command_name:target:[Parameter_List][;comments]
	Parameter_List consists of a parameter name, an equal sign, and a value for the parameter.
	The keywords and the value strings need not be enclosed in quotation marks. Anything you enter after a
	semicolon (;) is treated as a comment. Use only one MML command on each line.
	The “MML Command Reference” section on page A-7contains detailed information about the
	individual MML commands.
Tip		• Use the Up Arrow key to scroll through all previous MML commands in turn.
		• Use the Down Arrow key to move forward in the command buffer.
		• Use the Left and Right Arrow keys to move along the command line.
		• Use the Backspace, Delete, and alphanumeric keys to edit an MML command.

MML Command Conventions

The MML commands use the conventions shown in Table A-1.
