By default, the MSS CLI provides the following prompt for restricted 
users. The mmmm portion shows the WX model number (for example, 
1200) and the nnnnnn portion shows the last 6 digits of the WX media 
access control (MAC) address.

WXmmmm> 

After you become enabled as an administrative user by typing enable 
and supplying a suitable password, MSS displays the following prompt:

WXmmmm#

For information about changing the CLI prompt on a WX, see the set 
prompt command description in the 

.

The MSS CLI uses standard syntax notation:

„

Bold monospace font identifies the command and keywords you must 
type. For example:

„

Italic monospace font indicates a placeholder for a value. For example, 
you replace vlan-id in the following command with a virtual LAN 
(VLAN) ID:

clear interface vlan-id ip

„

Curly brackets ({ }) indicate a mandatory parameter, and square 
brackets ([ ]) indicate an optional parameter. For example, you must 
enter dynamic or port and a port list in the following command, but 
a VLAN ID is optional:

clear fdb {dynamic | port port-list} [vlan vlan-id]

„

A vertical bar (|) separates mutually exclusive options within a list of 
possibilities. For example, you enter either enable or disable, not 
both, in the following command:

set port {enable | disable} port-list

Unless otherwise indicated, the MSS CLI accepts standard ASCII 
alphanumeric characters, except for tabs and spaces, and is 
case-insensitive.
