Interpret the Command Help
Use the following table to help interpret the command
options you see when you use the ? to get
help.
Symbol | Description |
|---|---|
* | Indicates that the option is required. For
example, when importing a configuration over secure copy (SCP),
specifying the from parameter is required,
as indicated by the * from notation. username@hostname#> scp import configuration ?
+ remote-port SSH port number on remote host
+ source-ip Set source address to specified interface address
* from Source (username@host:path) |
> | Indicates that there are additional nested
commands. For example, when configuring DNS settings, there
are additional nested commands for configuring a DNS proxy object
and for specifying primary and secondary DNS servers: username@hostname# set deviceconfig system dns-setting ?
> dns-proxy-object Dns proxy object to use for resolving fqdns
> servers Primary and secondary dns servers
<Enter> Finish input |
+ | Indicates that the option has an associated
value that you must enter. For example, when setting up a
high availability configuration, notice that the + enabled notation indicates
that you must supply a value for this option: username@hostname# set deviceconfig high-availability ? + enabled enabled > group HA group configuration > interface HA interface configuration <Enter> Finish input Getting help for the enabled option shows that you must enter a value of yes or no: admin@PA-3060# set deviceconfig high-availability enabled ? no no yes yes |
| | Allows you to filter command output. You
can either specify a match value, which will
only show command output that matches the value you specify, or
you can specify an except value, which will
only show command output except for the value you specify. For
example, use the | match option to display
only the app-version in the output of the show system info command: username@hostname> show system info | match app-version
app-version: 8087-5126 Similarly, to show all users
in your group lists who are not part of your organization, you should
show the user group list, but exclude the organizational unit (ou)
for your organization. Notice that, although there are a total of
4555 user-to-group mappings, with the | except filter
you can easily see the small list of users who are part of external
groups: username@hostname> show user group list | except ou=acme

Total: 4555
