Performing Keyword Lookups

Entering a space and a question mark (?) after a keyword will display all commands beginning with the keyword. The following example shows how to perform a keyword lookup for the show snmp command. In this case, 13 additional keywords are used by the show snmp command. Entering a space and a question mark (?) after any of these parameters (such as show snmp user) will display additional parameters nested within the syntax.

System(rw)->show snmp ?
  access           SNMP VACM access configuration
  community        SNMP v1/v2c community name configuration
  context          SNMP VACM context list
  counters         SNMP counters
  engineid         SNMP engine properties
  group            SNMP VACM security to group configuration
  notify           SNMP notify configuration
  notifyfilter     SNMP notify filter configuration
  notifyprofile    SNMP notify profile configuration
  targetaddr       SNMP target address configuration
  targetparams     SNMP target parameters configuration
  user             SNMP USM user configuration
  view             SNMP VACM view tree configuration
System(rw)->show snmp
System(rw)->show snmp user ?
  list             List usernames
  <user>           User name
  remote           Show users with remote SNMP engine ID
  volatile         Show temporary entries
  nonvolatile      Show permanent entries
  read-only        Show r/o entries
  <cr>
System(rw)->show snmp user

Entering a question mark (?) without a space after a partial keyword will display a list of commands that begin with the partial keyword. The following example shows how to use this function for all commands beginning with co:

System(rw)->co?
  configure        Execute a configuration file
  copy             Upload or download an image or configuration file
System(rw)->co
Note

Note

At the end of the lookup display, the system will repeat the command you entered without 
the ?.
