ROM Monitor Syntax Conventions

•
Square brackets [ ] denote an optional element. In the following example, the element
abc is not required, but you can specify it if you choose:
command [abc]
•
If a minus option is followed by a colon (for example, [-s:]) you must provide an
argument for the option.

example, you replace the term in italics with the interface type you are using:
