The command header has a hierarchical structure that may be represented by a
command tree (see Figure 3–3). An easy-to-remember word called a mnemonic
designates each level of the hierarchy. A colon separates the levels.
command tree (see Figure 3–3). An easy-to-remember word called a mnemonic
designates each level of the hierarchy. A colon separates the levels.
The top level of the tree is the root level. A root node is a mnemonic at the root
level. A root node and one or more lower-level nodes form a header path to the
last node called the leaf node.

You must include values for commands that have parameters. In this manual, the
< > symbols enclose the parameter type when stating the syntax of the com-
