- It is safer than many other tools and offers the ability to prototype a command prior to the command execution.
- There is also a confirmation mode that will let a network administrator or other IT professional selectively step through a group of commands to pick commands to execute or ignore.
- It has built-in logging that provides documentation of not only what commands are executed but also the resultant output from those commands.
- It contains numerous features to promote a high level of discoverability and intuitive usability. and demonstrations.
This session is heavy with practical tips and demonstrations.
