I found it hard to believe, until I tried it. Seems like the '?' is
what does it. In a 12.4(10) lab router:
NRSB-U00-OR-01(config)#int lo 2 ?
<cr>
NRSB-U00-OR-01(config)#int lo 2
*Feb 5 18:13:26: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface
Loopback2, cha
nged state to up
That log message showed up about a second after hitting the '?' and
nothing else. Nice bug!
