Command syntax
CLI Guide | TRITON Appliances | v8.3.x
The CLI syntax follows this format:
Command + Option + Parameter
Typically, verbs such as show, set, and save are used to view status or statistics, to change the configuration, and to initiate actions.
For example:
# set system clock --date <yyyy/mm/dd>
In this example:
*
set system is the command.
*
clock is the option.
*
--date is the parameter, the value of which takes the format yyyy/mm/dd.
Other conventions include:
*
Angled bracket, which indicate the value or set of options available for a parameter:
--mask <ip_address>
--module <email|web|proxy>
*
Square brackets, which indicate that the parameter is optional:
[--description <description>]
*
Pipes or vertical bars, which separate parameter options:
<email|web|proxy>
Some commands have options and parameters, while others do not. Please refer to Help for CLI commands for more details.
