wait

This command pauses execution of the active script for the specified period of time.

Syntax

wait <delay>

Default

No wait delay is specified by default to pause script execution.

Mode

Privileged Exec (when executed from a script not directly from the command line)

Usage

Use this command to pause script execution in an .scp (AlliedWare Plus™ script) or an .sh
(ASH script) file executed by the

activate

command. The script must contain an

enable

(Privileged Exec mode)

command since the wait command is only executed in the

Privileged Exec mode.When a script is activated, the privilege level is set to 1 enabling
User Exec commands to run in the script. If you need to run Privileged Exec commands in
your script you need to add an

enable (Privileged Exec mode)

command to the start of

your script.

Example

See an example .scp script file extract below that will show port counters for interface
port1.0.1

over a 10 second interval:
