Notice that the first parameter, [name], is bracketed, indicating that it is a primary
key.
Parameter Values
In general, a parameter is specified by its name followed by its value. For example,
port 2600 specifies the value 2600 for the port parameter.
The following list describes exceptions for specifying parameter values:
Primary Key
If the first parameter for a command is listed in brackets (such as [name]), it is a
primary key parameter and specifies the object of the command. The primary
key value is specified without its parameter name.
For example, the first parameter of the command config ids spoof is listed
as [name] and the second parameter as type. When you enter the command,
specify just the value for the first parameter, but both the name and its value for
the second parameter.
> config ids spoof eth1 type trusted
Booleans
Boolean parameters are parameters with just two states (on/off or yes/no). To
specify the on/yes state, specify only the parameter name and omit any value. To
specify the off/no state, specify the keyword no followed by the parameter
name.
For example, the following command specifies the on/yes state for the enabled
parameter:
> config user account user1 enabled
To specify the off/no state for the enabled parameter, specify:
> config user account user1 no enabled
IP address ranges
When you specify an IP address range, use a hyphen between the first and last
addresses of the range (192.16.1.20-192.16.1.25) or use a subnet mask suffix
(192.168.1.1/24).
Numeric offsets
Certain numeric parameters use a plus (+) or a minus (-) symbol before the
numeric value to indicate an offset. For example, to configure a gain of -5, use:
> config voice parameters gain -5
Command Keyword NO
The keyword no is used to turn off a Boolean parameter or to clear string
parameters (to fill the string value with blanks).
NOTE: You must enter the no keyword before the parameter identifier.
