Chapter 2 Using the Command-Line Interface Scrolling Down a Line or a Screen Scrolling Down a Line or a Screen When the output of a command fills more than one terminal screen, a ---More--- prompt is displayed at the bottom of the screen. To view the next line or screen, perform these tasks: Task To scroll down one line To scroll down one screen To quit from the More mode Keystrokes Press the Return key Press the Spacebar Press the q key Note The ---More--- prompt is used for any output that has more lines than can be displayed on the terminal screen, including show command output. Using Command Aliases Aliases are not case sensitive; however, unlike regular commands, some aliases cannot be abbreviated. Table 2-3 lists the switch CLI aliases that cannot be abbreviated. Table 2-3 Switch CLI Command Aliases Alias ? batch di exit logout Command help configure show quit quit Specifying Modules, Ports, and VLANs Modules, ports, and VLANs are numbered sequentially, beginning with 1. The supervisor engine module is module 1, residing in slot 1. To designate a specific module, use the module number. In most systems, the module number and the slot number are the same. On the fixed-configuration switches, there are two logical modules. On the Catalyst 4912G, the Catalyst 2948G, and the Catalyst 2980G switches, there are two modules but only one slot. When you enter configuration commands on these switches, you must refer to the module number, not the slot number. For example, all of the user-configurable ports on these switches are logically on module 2. On modules that have user-configurable ports, the left-most port is always port 1. To designate a specific port on a specific module, the command syntax is mod_num/port_num. For example, 3/1 specifies module 3, port 1. On the Catalyst 4912G, the Catalyst 2948G, and the Catalyst 2980G switches, the left-most switch port is numbered 2/1 instead of 1/1 because logically the ports are located on module 2. 78-12647-02 Software Configuration Guide-Catalyst 4000 Family, Catalyst 2948G, Catalyst 2980G, Releases 6.3 and 6.4 2-7
