Conventions

This guide uses the following conventions for commands and screen displays.

Command Syntax Statements

Syntax: ip < default-gateway < ip-addr>> routing >

Syntax: show interfaces [port-list]

■Vertical bars ( ) separate alternative, mutually exclusive elements.

■Square brackets ( [ ] ) indicate optional elements.

■Braces ( < > ) enclose required elements.

■Braces within square brackets ( [ < > ] ) indicate a required element within an optional choice.

■Boldface indicates use of a CLI command, part of a CLI command syntax, or other displayed element in general text. For example:

“Use the copy tftp command to download the key from a TFTP server.”

■Italics indicate variables for which you must supply a value when execut- ing the command. For example, in this command syntax, you must provide one or more port numbers:

Syntax: aaa port-access authenticator < port-list>
