Adding Configuration Statements and Identifiers
When you use the
?
help to view a list of possible command completions, the output includes symbols that provide more information about the statement. The following symbols can appear in a list:
- Angle bracket (
>
) before the statement name indicates that the statement is a container statement and that you can define other statements at levels below it.- No angle bracket (
>
) before the statement name indicates that the statement is a leaf statement; you cannot define other statements at hierarchy levels below it.- Plus sign (+) before the statement name indicates that the statement can contain a set of values. To specify a set, include the values in brackets.
- Asterisk (*) before a statement name indicates a required statement or option that is not configured.
- Plus/Asterisk (+*) before a statement name indicates a required option that can contain a set of values.
The following example at the
[edit system services]
hierarchy level shows thatauthentication-order
,domain-search
, andname-server
can contain more than one value.[edit system]user@host#show ?
Possible completions:<[Enter]> Execute this command+ authentication-order Order in which authentication methods are invoked+ domain-search List of domain names to searchhost-name Hostname for SDX platform> ldap LDAP properties> login Login properties+ name-server DNS name servers> ntp NTP configuration> radius-server RADIUS server configuration> services System services configuration> syslog System log configuration> tacplus-server TACACS+ server configurationtime-zone Time zone definition name| Pipe through a commandThe following example at the
[edit shared sae configuration driver]
hierarchy level shows thatmac-cache-expiration
andunauthenticated-subscriber-dn
are required statements.[edit shared sae configuration driver]user@host#show ?
Possible completions:<[Enter]> Execute this command> junos Parameters the SAE uses to manage JUNOS routing platforms> junose Parameters the SAE uses to manage JUNOSe routers* mac-cache-expiration Time that a subscriber profile remains in SAE cache (0..INF s)> pcmm Parameters that SAE uses to manage PCMM devices> scripts Scripts to customize setup of SAE connections to devices> simulated Parameters that the SAE uses for simulated drivers> snmp Global default SNMP communities> third-party Parameters that SAE uses to manage third-party devices* unauthenticated-subscriber-dnDN of an unauthenticated subscriber profilevirtual-portal-addressIP address of the portal server| Pipe through a commandIf you do not type an option for a statement that requires one, a message indicates the type of information expected. In this example, you need to type an area number as an identifier to complete the logger name:
[edit]user@host#set shared sae configuration logger
^syntax error, expecting <identifier>.
