Finding IOS Command Information

First Published: February 2008

Last Updated: January 2014

This document contains a list of the commands supported in many different software releases and on many different platforms. Some of the commands may not be supported in your Cisco IOS software release. To search for a command, use the alphabet key at the top part of this document and then scroll down until you find the command of interest, or use the Find function in your web browser. To access the documentation for a particular command, click the link to the command reference designator to the right of the command name. This list is intended to be used online only.

Alternatively, you may search for commands using the Command Lookup Tool (https:/​/​tools.cisco.com/​Support/​CLILookup), where you will be prompted to provide your Cisco.com username and password.
