tion to the text notation introduced in “<strong>CLI</strong> <strong>Guide</strong> text conventions”<br />
on page 3.<br />
Convention Description<br />
All required text is enclosed in angle brackets.<br />
- Some arguments must be preceded by a hyphen<br />
(“-”). If a hyphen is required, but you do not use<br />
it to precede the argument, that argument will be<br />
dropped.<br />
[text] Optional text is enclosed in square brackets.<br />
{text} Text wrapped in curly braces is optional, usually<br />
representing qualifications or values related to an<br />
argument.<br />
itemA | itemB Text items separated by a pipe character (vertical<br />
bar) indicate two options, of which only one can<br />
be entered.<br />
itemA &| itemB Text followed by an ampersand (&) and a pipe<br />
character (vertical bar) indicates two options,<br />
either or both of which can be entered.<br />
[item_A, item_B, A comma separating bracketed text indicates<br />
item_C]<br />
repeated options that may be entered one at a<br />
time or all at once.<br />
+ item A plus (+) sign preceding specific text represents<br />
additional elements that are being added to an<br />
existing setting. For example, to add a new<br />
“member” to an existing address group, you<br />
would type a “+” prior to the address<br />
information of the new member.<br />
no A “no” entered before an argument indicates<br />
that the argument is not to be included in the<br />
command. This is useful when entering a number<br />
of arguments, one of which should not be<br />
included yet must be entered in the command.<br />
\ A backslash character at the end of a portion of<br />
command line signifies that the command line<br />
has been broken at that point, and continues on<br />
the next line.<br />
If you enter a command in the <strong>CLI</strong>, such as the following:<br />
WG(config)#policy<br />
and press without adding any arguments to the<br />
command line, the <strong>WatchGuard</strong> <strong>CLI</strong> will display a com-<br />
