Document Organization Map

The topics in this guide are grouped into introduction, functional tasks, and reference categories, and are organized in the following way:

Document Conventions

This guide uses the convention whereby the symbol ^ represents the key labeled Control. For example, the key combination ^ z means “Hold down the Control key while you press the z key.”

Command descriptions use these conventions:

• Examples that contain system prompts denote interactive sessions and indicate the commands that you should enter at the prompt. The system prompt indicates the current level of the EXEC command interpreter. For example, the prompt Router> indicates that you should be at the user level, and the prompt Router# indicates that you should be at the privileged level. Access to the privileged level usually requires a password.
• Commands and keywords are in boldface font.
• Arguments for which you supply values are in italic font.
• Elements in square brackets ([ ]) are optional.
• Alternative keywords from which you must choose one are grouped in braces ({}) and separated by vertical bars (|).

Examples use these conventions:

• Terminal sessions and sample console screen displays are in screen font.
• Information you enter is in boldface screen font.
• Nonprinting characters, such as passwords, are in angle brackets (< >).
• Default responses to system prompts are in square brackets ([]).
• An exclamation point (!) at the beginning of a line indicates a comment line.
