Additional Cisco IOS CLI Features
Because the ATM switch router’s operating system is based on Cisco IOS software, its interface provides
a number of features that help you use the CLI with greater flexibility, ease, and power. Thesefeatures
includes the following:
Context-sensitive help—allows you to obtain a list of commands available for each command mode
or a list of available options for a specific command by entering a question mark (?).
Command history—records a history of commands, allowing you to recall previously entered long
or complex commands.
Editing—provides the ability to move around the command line, cut and paste entries, control
scrolling, create keyboard macros, and so on.
For information on using these and other features of Cisco I OS software, refer to the Configuration
Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
