Boldface indicates commands and keywords that are entered literally as shown.
Italics indicate arguments for which you supply values. If the no form of a command has exactly the same keywords and arguments as the command, no appears in square brackets at the beginning of the command line. If the no form of a command does not have all the same keywords and arguments, the no form is displayed separately. If the no form of a command is not explicitly explained in the description, it negates the command. Use Enter commands by typing their names at the EXEC prompt and pressing the Return key.
