You pointed out, to me, on how to complete a command.  I don't need 
assistance with that.

I pointed out that it is best to offer people that are newer to Cisco and/or 
a specific platform best practices (for many reasons).

Here's an example from my home ASA on why best practices...are best 
practices:

homepix(config)# static (inside,outside) 58.66.76.88 192.168.0.100
homepix(config)# sh run static
static (inside,outside) 58.66.76.88 192.168.0.100 netmask 255.255.255.255
homepix(config)# static (inside,outside) 172.16.0.0 172.16.0.0
homepix(config)# sh run static
static (inside,outside) 58.66.76.88 192.168.0.100 netmask 255.255.255.255
static (inside,outside) 172.16.0.0 172.16.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0

If you think that's arrogance, that's your opinion.
