Force10 Networks S2410s manual No Form of a Command

Words in italics (also sometimes shown in brackets: <parameter>) indicate that a mandatory parameter must be entered in place of the brackets and text inside them.

[parameter]—square brackets indicate that an optional parameter may be entered in place of the brackets and text inside them.

choice1 choice2—pipe indicates that only one of the parameters should be entered.

{parameter}—curly braces indicate that a parameter must be chosen from the list of choices.

“No” Form of a Command

“No” is a specific form of an existing command and does not represent a new or distinct command. Only the configuration commands are available in the “no” form. The behavior and the support details of the “no” form is captured as part of the mapping sheets.

Almost every configuration command has a “no” form. In general, use the “no” form to reverse the action of a command or reset a value to the default. For example, the no shutdown command reverses the shutdown of an interface. Use the command without the keyword no to re-enable a disabled feature or to enable a feature that is disabled by default.

Values

ipaddr—This parameter is a valid IP address. Presently, the IP address can be entered in these formats:

•a (32 bits)

•a.b (8.24 bits)

•a.b.c (8.8.16 bits)

•a.b.c.d (8.8.8.8)

In addition to these formats, decimal, hexadecimal, and octal formats are supported through the following input formats (where n is any valid hexadecimal, octal, or decimal number):

•0xn (CLI assumes hexadecimal format)

•0n (CLI assumes octal format with leading zeros)

•n (CLI assumes decimal format)

macaddr—The MAC address format is six hexadecimal numbers separated by colons, for example 00:06:29:32:81:40.

areaid—Area IDs may be entered in dotted-decimal notation (for example, 0.0.0.1). An area ID of 0.0.0.0 is reserved for the backbone. Area IDs have the same form as IP addresses, but are distinct from IP addresses. The IP network number of the sub-netted network may be used for the area ID.

routerid—The value of <router id> must be entered in 4-digit dotted-decimal notation (for example, 0.0.0.1). A router ID of 0.0.0.0 is invalid.
