Conventions
Network address are used to define a link to a remote host, workstation or network. Network
addresses are shown using the following syntax:
Double quotation marks such as "System Name with Spaces" set off user-defined strings. If the
operator wants to use spaces as part of a name parameter, then it must be enclosed in double
quotation marks.
Entering '@' in front of any command allows the user to reference any root command from
anywhere in the tree. For example, '>config router>@show arp table' displays the ARP table
even though the command was not executed from the root level.
Command completion finishes spelling the command when enough letters of a command are typed
to uniquely identify the command word. The command may be executed by typing <enter>
(command abbreviation) or the command word may be completed by typing the <tab> or <space
bar> (command completion).
The value 'Err' designates that the requested value was not internally accessible. This should never
happen and indicates that there is a case in the software that is not handled correctly.
The value of '-----' designates that the value is unknown.
