How about that? 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 1.Add / Delete / List 1.(ip range #) 2.Reserve IP Address(es) 6.SNMP 1.Add / Delete / List 1.(community string) 7.Printing 1.Local / Remote 1.Printer 1.Add 2.Configuration 1.Modify / List 3.Delete 2.Printerqueue 1.View jobs 2.Delete jobs 2.ACL Templates 1.Add / Delete / Modify / List 1.Name 5.Authentication methods +->TACACS, RADIUS and the likes? --- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven/Asmodai asmodai(at)wxs.nl Junior Network/Security Specialist FreeBSD & picoBSD: The Power to Serve...
