The command set is divided into Exec and Configuration classes.
Exec commands generally display information on system status
or clear statistical counters. Configuration commands, on the
other hand, modify interface parameters or enable certain
functions. These classes are further divided into different modes.
Available commands depend on the selected mode. You can
always enter a question mark “?” at the prompt to disp lay a list of
the commands available for the current mode. The command
classes and associated modes are displayed in the following
