Text Conventions

Important concepts throughout this manual are emphasized with these
special text styles:

[Buttons]

Function buttons that appear on a screen ar
shown in regular body text and enclosed in
square brackets. For example:

[Close]

[Send]

Commands

In command lines, type text that appears in
this style exactly as shown:

avdumpdb

BNC OFF

Press the <Return> or <Enter> key after all
commands.

Variable
Arguments

Variable arguments are text that you specify.
They are shown in italics. For example:

avaccess

switch_name

In this case, “switch_name” is variable text.
To enter the command, type

avaccess

and then the actual name of the switch.

...

Ellipses (...) signify that the preceding argu-
ment can be repeated a number of times. For
example:

cat

filename...

means that you would typ

cat

followed

by one or more filenames.
