Document Conventions

This publication uses the following conventions to convey instructions and information:

For example, the key combinations ^D and Ctrl-D are equivalent: Both mean hold down the Control key while you press the D key. Keys are indicated in capitals, but are not case sensitive.
There are a few strings that include quotation marks as part of the statement. Therefore, common practice is not to include the quotation marks unless they are included in the statement. For example, set the SNMP community string to public, does not use quotation marks around the string "public" because when you enter the string you would not include the quotation marks.

Command descriptions use these conventions:

The command syntax contains a combination of bold and regular uppercase and lower case alphanumeric characters. You can enter the full text of the commands or you can enter the abbreviated form. The abbreviated form consists of the first characters in each word, shown in bold uppercase type in the command syntax. The bold uppercase characters are the minimum you must enter for the command to be recognized and executed.

The actual commands you enter are not case sensitive. The capitalization and bold type are used in this manual only to differentiate the characters required for the abbreviated forms of commands.

For example, The syntax of the set system command is as follows:

>SEt SYstemname [systemname]
systemname>

The complete version of the set system command can be entered at the command prompt as follows:

>set systemname systemname
systemname>

The abbreviated version of the same command can be entered as follows:

>se sy systemname
systemname>
