Document Conventions
Software and hardware documentation uses the following conventions:
- The caret character (^) represents the Control key.
- 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.
- A string is defined as a nonquoted set of characters.
- For example, when setting an SNMP community string to "public," do not use quotation marks around the string; otherwise, the string will include the quotation marks.
Command descriptions use these conventions:
- Vertical bars ( | ) separate alternative, mutually exclusive, elements.
- Square brackets ([ ]) indicate optional elements.
- Arguments are enclosed in angle brackets (< >).
In this manual, command syntax contains a combination of bold and regular uppercase and lower-case alphanumeric characters. You can enter commands in full or you can enter an abbreviated form of many commands. The abbreviated form consists of the first characters in each word that appear in bold uppercase type in command syntax in this publication. These characters represent the minimum you must enter for the command to be recognized and executed. For example, the complete spelled out version of a command would be as follows:
SEt SYstemname <system name>
The abbreviated version of the same command would be as follows:
SE SY <system name>
The actual command you enter are not case-sensitive. The capitalization and bold type have been used in this manual only to differentiate the characters required for the abbreviated forms of commands.
Examples use these conventions:
- Examples that contain system prompts denote interactive sessions, indicating that the user enters commands at the prompt. The system prompt indicates the current command mode. For example, the prompt
router(config)#
indicates global configuration mode.
- Information you enter is in boldface screen font.
- Terminal sessions and information the system displays are in
screen
font.
- Nonprinting characters, such as passwords, are in angle brackets (< >).
