Command Line Interface Conventions
The following conventions are used to present the syntax of command line
interface (CLI) commands in examples and in text.
In examples:
Anything inside square brackets [ ] is optional.
Anything inside braces { } is required.
If there is more than one choice, each choice is separated by a pipe ( | ). For
example:
set interface { ethernet1 | ethernet2 | ethernet3 } manage
means “set the management options for the ethernet1, the ethernet2,
or
the
ethernet3 interface.”

when entering commands, all the commands documented here are presented in
their entirety.
