Note
The system prompt varies depending on the configuration mode.Note
Enter Ctrl + V to use ? as a regular character and not as a character used for displaying context sensitive help. This is required when the user has to enter a URL that ends with a ?Note
The escape character used through out the CLI is "\". To enter a "\" use "\\" instead.When using context-sensitive help, the space (or lack of a space) before the question mark (?) is significant. To obtain a list of commands that begin with a particular sequence, enter the characters followed by a question mark (?). Do not include a space. This form of help is called word help, because it completes a word.

rfs4000-6DB5D4#
It is possible to abbreviate commands and keywords to allow a unique abbreviation. For example, "configure terminal" can be abbreviated as config t. Since the abbreviated command is unique, the wireless controller accepts the abbreviation and executes the command.
Enter the help command (available in any command mode) to provide the following description:
rfs4000-6DB5D4>help When using the CLI, help is provided at the command line when typing '?'. If no help is available, the help content will be empty. Backup until entering a '?' shows the help content. There are two styles of help provided: 1. Full help. Available when entering a command argument (e.g. 'show ?'). This will describe each possible argument. 2. Partial help. Available when an abbreviated argument is entered. This will display which arguments match the input (e.g. 'show ve?'). rfs4000-6DB5D4>
