Using the "show parser dump" Command

If you are searching for a particular configuration command, try using the "show parser dump" command. This command shows all the commands (and subcommands) available in a particular configuration context. For example, "show parser dump interface" will show all of the possible commands and parameters that can be used when configuring an interface.

If you add the extend switch to the end of the command, the output will also show what each of the parameters means.
