Command History
Usage Guidelines This command was developed to allow the exploration of the CLI command syntax without requiring the
user to actually enter a specific mode and use the ? command line help.
Caution Use caution when entering this command with the all keyword. A large amount of output can be
generated by this command, which may easily exceed buffer or system memory on smaller platforms.
Also, some configuration modes have hundreds of valid commands. For large dumps, use of the
command-mode A keyword indicating the command mode. The output will include the syntax
for commands only in the specified command mode. The list of command
mode keywords will vary depending on your software image. Use the show
parser dump ? command to display the list of command mode keyword
options. For further assistance determining the proper command mode, see the
“Cisco IOS Command Modes” Release 12.2 document, available on
Cisco.com.
all Indicates that all commands in all modes should be displayed in the output.
Caution This keyword generates a very large amount of output,
which may exceed your system or buffer memory.
privilege-level level (Optional) Lists CLI commands only with the privilege level specified in the
level argument.
breakage (Optional) Enables detection of potential parser chain syntax breakage. This
keyword is intended for internal use.
