When you reach the bottom of the hierarchy for a particular command and type the Enter key, the CLI may prompt you for a value. The response will appear in two columns.
The value prompt appears in the first column on the screen within angle brackets, for example, <ServerIPAddress>. You must provide a value to complete the operation. In the second column, the CLI displays information about the value. Here is an example of a value prompt from the CLI:
cli> download base image specific
<ServerIPAddress> | : IPAddress |
<RemoteFileName> | : String (1..50) |
In this example, the CLI is used to download a file to the Passport 4400 unit. The CLI prompts you for two values. The first value needed is the IP address of the server containing the file to be downloaded. This is indicated in the CLI value prompt as <ServerIPAddress>. The second column of the same line is prompting you for an IP Address. The second value needed to complete the operation is the name of the file to be downloaded. This is indicated by the CLI value prompt <RemoteFileName>. The second column of the same line is prompting you for a display string within a range of 1 to 50 characters.
