If you are already familiar with Cisco IOS software, proceed to Chapter 2, "Using the Setup Command Facility." Getting Help Use the question mark (?) and arrow keys to help you enter commands: • For a list of available commands, enter a question mark: Router> ? • To complete a command, enter a few known characters followed by a question mark (with no space): Router> s? • For a list of command variables, enter the command followed by a space and a question mark: Router> show ? • To redisplay a command you previously entered, press the up arrow key. You can continue to press the up arrow key for more commands. Understanding Command Modes The Cisco IOS user interface is divided into different modes. Each command mode permits you to configure different components on your router. The commands available at any given time depend on which mode you are currently in. Entering a question mark (?) at the prompt displays a list of commands available for each command mode. Table 1-2 lists the most common command modes.
