When you enter a partial command (part of a command) and press the TAB or
SPACE key, the command line parser completes the command if the string
entered is unique to the command mode. For this to happen, service completion is
to be enabled for the key.
For example, if you enter
conf
in the
SUM
mode, this entry is associated with the
configure
command.

When you use the command completion feature, the CLI displays the full
command name. The command is not executed until you use the Return or Enter
key. This way you can modify the command if the full command was not what you
intended by the abbreviation.
If the CLI cannot complete the command, it displays the list of commands that
begin with the set of characters.
For example, typing show ip i<tab> will list all commands, which start with "show
ip i" in the current command mode:
ALU(config)# show ip i<tab>
igmp interface
ALU(config)# show ip i"
Note:
Characters you enter before the question mark are reprinted to the screen to allow
you to complete the command entry.
