Cisco SFS 7000 Series Product Family Command Reference Guide
OL-9163-02
Chapter 1 Using the CLI
Using the Documentation
The “all” Keyword
The all keyword indicates all the ports of all the modules of a specific type of interface. That is, all
Ethernet, FibreChannel, or InfiniBand interface modules. The subsequent prompt will appear as though
you entered the ports as a list.
Using the Documentation
The command descriptions in this book provide quick access to the information about each command.
This book divides each command description into subsections, so you can go directly to the desired
information.
Synopsis
The Synopsis subsection provides a brief, high-level description of the command.
Syntax
The Syntax subsection provides the command syntax. The following conventions apply:
• Text in bold font represents text that you enter exactly as it appears.
• Text in italicized font represents variables that you replace with actual values when you enter a
command at the command line.
• Square brackets ([,]) enclose optional syntax. Do not enter square brackets in the CLI.
• Braces ({,}) enclose required syntax choices. Do not enter braces in the CLI.
• The pipe character (|) delineates between selections in syntax. That is, if command X requires
argument Y or argument Z, but not both at the same time, the syntax will appear as follows:
X {Y | Z}
A table that describes all syntax arguments follows the syntax line(s).
Note Input strings, such as device names and descriptions, must be contiguous without any intervening spaces
or blanks. In the event that you wish to enter a multi-word string, enclose the string within double-quotes
(“,”); otherwise the CLI parses each word as a separate argument, which results in a syntax violation.
Platform Availability
The platform subsection indicates the platform or platforms (such as Cisco SFS 3001, Cisco SFS 7000,
Cisco SFS 7008, Cisco SFS 3012, InfiniBand Switch Module for IBM BladeCenter) on which you may
execute the command.
