6.6 Tab-Completion
Tab-completion is a powerful feature that presents CLI users with assistance while typing. Depending on
the text that was already typed, tab-completion will display different possible completions.
When the tab key is pressed and no text has been typed, the CLI shows all of the possible commands that
can be typed, as shown below. In this example, the CLI is in configuration mode and the following
commands are relevant to configuration mode only.
%
Possible completions:
annotate - Add a comment to a statement
commit - Commit current set of changes
compare - Show configuration differences
copy - Copy a dynamic element
delete - Delete a data element
edit - Edit a sub-element
exit - Exit from this level
help - Provide help information
insert - Insert a parameter
move - Move a parameter
quit - Exit from this level
rename - Rename an identifier
request - Make system-level requests
resolved - Conflicts have been resolved
revert - Copy configuration from running
rollback - Roll back database to last committed version
run - Run an operational-mode command
set - Set a parameter
show - Show a parameter
status - Display users currently editing the configuration
tag - Manipulate statement tags
top - Exit to top level and optionally run command
up - Exit one level of configuration
validate - Validate current configuration
When the tab key is pressed after a typed command, then the CLI will show the user all the possible
options that are pertinent to that command. In the example below the tab key was pressed after the word
“set“. The list of possible completions is shown to user.
