History Buffer

Every time a command is entered in the CLI, it is recorded in an internally

managed Command History buffer. Commands are stored in the buffer,

which operates on a

First In First Out (FIFO)

basis. These commands can be

recalled, reviewed, modified, and reissued. This buffer is not preserved after

switch resets.
