We're well on the way I must say ;)

I have also added some tree/branches not fully opened by Andrzej, either
because he had no desire of filling them all in or he just had no idea what
to fill them with. I have taken the liberty to collapse some of them to get
more and more an idea of the command hierarchy and at the same time providing a
means of establishing a commonly accepted command syntax/hierarchy that is less
prone to break or be otherwise severly messed up in comparison to IOS, ShivOS
(Shiva's OS) or EmbeddedNT (have any of you even seen this?).

Some requested changes to the updated lay-out (ye care to version the HTML-page
Andrzej?) :

Numbering of the topmost headers as to ease reference to particular entries in
the commandtree (e.g. let's say network configuration is 2, 2.2.4.1 would mean
the IP address for a physical or virtual networkinterface)

System configuration

4.Resource management 
                  1.Memory consumption 
                  2.Task priorities 
                        1.List / Modify 

I think we would need a 3rd option under Resource management that will tell us
how our different tables are doing. Might also be an option under 1.Memory
Consumption. Because we have had to replace switches and routers at work before
their MAC-table and Routing-table were reaching their limit.


Network configuration

4.Routes 
                  1.List 
                  2.Static 
                        1.Add / Delete / List 
                               1.(route expression) 
                  3.Dynamic
                        1.IS-IS
                                1.Add / Delete / List 
                                       1.(route expression)
                        2.NLSP
                                1.Add / Delete / List 
                                       1.(route expression)
                        3.OSPF
                                1.Add / Delete / List 
                                       1.(route expression)
                        4. ..

Else we're going to shoot ourselves in the foot when we need to extend our
dynamic route capabilities.



5.Network services

        5.DHCP

                                  +->TACACS, RADIUS and the likes?
