where:
This command has subcommands. This table describes the subcommands and provides
the syntax.
|
|
|
autocommit
|
Controls whether the CLI automatically commits after each
change:
-
on – The default is
on. When a CLI command is
complete, the system automatically commits the changes
to the configuration database.
-
off – When set to
off, any changes must be manually
written to the database using the
commit command. Choosing
off lets you make a set of
changes and then commit the changes as a group.
|
|
block-entry
|
Controls whether the CLI prompts for the entry of scripting
blocks, such as “foreach”.
|
|
color
|
Controls whether the CLI displays colors for command output in
a session. Only output is displayed in color. Command prompts
and command text is monochrome. By default, colors are
displayed, but setting color to off returns
the screen to monochrome display.
|
|
cols
|
Sets the number of columns on the terminal screen. The default
is the screen size for your monitor. Setting row size might not
be available through a TTY/console port.
|
|
confirm
|
Sets the CLI confirmation mode. If the mode is set to
on, the CLI confirms dangerous
commands.
|
|
echo
|
Displays all CLI communication. Choosing on
echoes all commands to the terminal screen. The default is
off.
|
|
history
|
Sets the number of saved history commands to display. The
buffer limit size is 512 commands per user. The log is
persistent across CLI login sessions.
|
|
idle-timeout
|
After a specified number of idle minutes, the CLI session
times out. Configure a value of 0 to
configure an infinite CLI timeout (no timeout). The default is
30 minutes.
|
|
mode
|
Controls the CLI mode. The default is
user.
|
|
paging
|
Sets the CLI paging mode. When set to on,
the display output stops when the screen is full. When paging
mode is off, the output does not stop at the
end of the page.
|
|
progress-bar
|
Determines if a progress bar is displayed on the screen for
commands that are expected to take a long time to
execute.
|
|
prompt
|
Controls the current CLI prompt mode. The custom keyword sets
the prompt to be an arbitrary CLI expression. The normal keyword
sets the prompt to be the full name of the current object, such
as admin@nsn150-162[OFOS].
|
|
rows
|
Sets the number of rows on the terminal screen. The default is
the screen size for your monitor. Setting row size might not be
available through a TTY/console port.
|
|
space-completion
|
Controls whether the CLI completes commands when the spacebar
is pressed. The default is on.
|
|
wrap
|
Controls whether the CLI wraps text at the end of line. The
default is on.
|
|
