Who Should Read this Manual?
The audience for this user guide is network administrators and IT support personnel who need to config-
ure, maintain, and monitor switches and routers in a live network. Anyone wishing to gain knowledge on 
the details of all CLI commands available on the OmniSwitch will benefit from the material in this refer-
ence guide. However, advanced users who have already familiarized themselves with the OmniSwitch CLI 
commands will benefit most from the detailed content in this guide.
When Should I Read this Manual?
Read this guide whenever you want detailed information on individual CLI commands. Although this 
guide provides helpful information during any stage of the configuration process, it is a good idea to first 
familiarize yourself with the software features available on the switch before investigating the detailed 
command information in this guide. 
Overview information, procedures, and live network examples on switch software features may be found 
in the OmniSwitch CLI Reference GuideOmniSwitch AOS Release 6 Network Configuration Guide, and 
the OmniSwitch AOS Release 6 Advanced Routing Configuration Guide. Once you are familiar with the 
procedures and base CLI commands in these configuration guides you can obtain more detailed informa-
tion on the individual commands in this guide.
What is in this Manual?
This reference guide includes information on every CLI command available in the switch. Command 
reference information is included for base software commands as well as commands associated with 
optional software packages, such as Advanced Routing (multicast routing protocols and OSPF). The infor-
mation provided for each CLI command includes:
• Command description.
• Syntax.
• Description of all keywords and variables included in the syntax.
• Default values.
• Usage guidelines, which include tips on when and how to use the command.

• Related commands with descriptions.
• Release history, which indicates the release when the command was introduced.
• SNMP information, such as the MIB files related to a set of CLI commands. In addition each CLI 
command includes the corresponding MIB variables that map to all parameters included in a command.
