1.6.1 Command Syntax Conventions

The following conventions apply as you use LCM commands:

•Press the Enter key to execute a command after you type it in.

•A port range is either a single port number, or a list of port numbers separated by commas or hyphens. For example, 3 is port 3; 3,7 are ports 3 and 7; 3-5 are ports 3,4, and 5; and 3-5,7 are ports 3,4,5, and 7.

•To quit any command, press the Control-C keys (^C or Ctrl-C).

•You can abbreviate any command where there is no ambiguity; if there is ambiguity, LCM responds with an error message.

•Commands are not case sensitive.

•Any invalid commands or misspellings will receive an error message.

•A previous command can be repeated by typing !!.

•MAC addresses are displayed in little-endian Ethernet bit order, with each octet separated by a colon. For example:

FN10 >address 00:40:27:04:1a:0f
