Text conventions

This guide uses the following text conventions:

angle brackets (< >)

Indicates that you choose the text to enter based on the

 

description inside the brackets. Do not type the

 

brackets when entering the command.

 

Example: If the command syntax is

 

ping <ip_address>, you enter

 

ping 192.32.10.12

bold Courier text

Indicates command names, options, and text that you

 

need to enter.

 

Example: Use the show health command.

 

Example: Enter terminal paging {off on}.

braces ({})

Indicates required elements in syntax descriptions

 

where more than one option exists. You must choose

 

only one option. Do not type the braces when you enter

 

the command.

 

Example: If the command syntax is ldap-server

 

source {external internal}, you must enter

 

either ldap-server source external or

 

ldap-server source internal, but not both.

brackets ([ ])

Indicates optional elements in syntax descriptions. Do

 

not type the brackets when you enter the command.

 

Example: If the command syntax is

 

show ntp [associations], you can enter

 

either show ntp or show ntp associations.

 

Example: If the command syntax is default rsvp

 

[token-bucket {depth rate}], you can enter

 

default rsvp, default rsvp token-bucket

 

depth, or default rsvp token-bucket rate.

ellipsis points (. . .)

Indicates that you repeat the last element of the

 

command as needed.

 

Example: If the command syntax is

 

more diskn:<directory>/...<file_name>,

 

you enter more and the fully qualified name of the file.
