CLI Conventions
15 IOLAN DS1/TS2 CLI Reference Guide, Version 4.3
z Options—Provides an explanation of each of the options for a command and the default value if
there is one. Some commands do not have any options, so this category is absent.
Command Shortcuts
When you type a command, you can specify the shortest unique version of that command or you can
press the
ESC or TAB key to complete the command. For example, the following command:
set telnet-client map-to-crlf off
can be typed as:
set tel map off
or, you can use the ESC key to complete the lines as you go along:
set tel<ESC>net-client ma<ESC>p-to-crlf off
where the <ESC> key was pressed to complete the option as it was typed.
Command Options
When you are typing commands on the command line (while connected to the IOLAN), you can view
the options by typing a question mark (
? ) after any part of the command to see what options are
available/valid. For example:
DS$ set vmodem ?
failure-string
host
port

success-string
suppress
DS$ set vmodem failure-string ?
<text> 30 characters maximum
DS$ set vmodem failure-string "Vmodem failed" ?
