Command completion, editing, and history The CLI supports command completion, command editing, and command history. When entering commands interactively you can abbreviate their names and keywords. For example, you can enter sho cl to run the show cli-parameters command. If you enter too few letters to uniquely identify a keyword, pressing Tab will list commands or keywords that match the entered string and redisplays the string so you can complete it. When scripting commands, type commands in full to aid readability. The history contains the last 30 commands entered in the active CLI session. You can recall a command from the history, edit it, and run it.
