iclid Commands

Command Description

?or <tab> Shows all possible command completions.

help	Displays help information.
quit or exit	Quits iclid.
show	Shows formatted, categorized system information.

Some commands might produce more output than can fit on a single screen; iclid pages the output of such commands for you, that is, stops the output after one screen and indicates that there is more output with a MORE prompt. You can see the next screenful of output by selecting any key except the q key; you can abort the command and any further output by typing q at the MORE prompt. If you do not enter anything within about 30 seconds, the system automatically pages to the next screenful of information. You can temporarily defeat this automatic paging by typing ctl-S, although when you resume scrolling (by selecting any key) you might lose a page of information.

At any point in iclid, you can type ? to display possible command completions. You can also abbreviate commands when an abbreviation is not ambiguous.

The help command takes as arguments iclid commands and top-level iclid categories; it displays a brief summary of what the specified command displays.

The quit command returns control to the firewall shell. The exit command is the same as the quit command.

The show command provides many kinds of information, displayed in useful formats. The following table shows examples of the top-level iclid element that can be displayed by the show command as applied to each parameter, along with any selected categories and subcategories, and a description of the information the command displays.
