Common Parameters

Parameter values might be names (strings) or numbers. To use spaces as part of a name 
parameter, enclose the name value in double quotes. For example, the expression “System 
Name with Spaces” forces the system to accept the spaces. Empty strings (“”) are not valid 
user-defined strings. The following table describes common parameter values and value 
formatting:

ipaddr

This parameter is a valid IPv4 address. You need to enter the IP address in the a.b.c.d 
format, in which each octet is a number in the range from 0 to 255 (both inclusive), for 
example, 10.12.140.218.

The CLI accepts decimal, hexadecimal, and octal formats through the following input 
formats (where n is any valid decimal, hexadecimal, or octal number):

• 0xn (CLI assumes hexadecimal format)

• 0n (CLI assumes octal format with leading zeros)

•  n (CLI assumes decimal format)

ipv6-address

This parameter is a valid IPv6 address. You can enter the IPv6 address in the following 
formats:

• FE80:0000:0000:0000:020F:24FF:FEBF:DBCB, or

• FE80:0:0:0:20F:24FF:FEBF:DBCB, or

• FE80::20F:24FF:FEBF:DBCB, or

• FE80:0:0:0:20F:24FF:128:141:49:32

.

Character strings

Use double quotation marks to identify character strings, for example, “System Name with 
Spaces”. An empty string (“”) is not valid.
