Purpose
Encloses an optional value or set of optional arguments.
Syntax
reset {[config | system]} {force_agree}
Description
In the first part of the above syntax example, users have the option to
specify config or system. It is not necessary to specify either optional value,
however the effect of the system reset is dependent on which, if any, value
is specified. Therefore, with this example there are three possible outcomes
of performing a system reset. Do not type the braces.
Example command
reset config
(parentheses)
Purpose
Indicates at least one or more of the values or arguments in the preceding
syntax enclosed by braces must be specified.
Syntax
config dhcp_relay {hops <value 1-16> | time <sec 0-65535>}(1)
Description
In the above syntax example, users have the option to specify hops or time or
both of them. The "(1)" following the set of braces indicates at least one
argument or value within the braces must be specified. Do not type the
parentheses.
Example
command
config dhcp_relay hops 3
