Performing Common CLI Functions
The following table contains descriptions of common CLI commands.
Command
Description
do
The do command provides a way to execute commands in
other command sets without taking the time to exit the
current and enter the desired one. The following example
shows the do command used to view the Frame Relay
interface configuration while currently in the T1 interface
command set:
(config)#interface t1 1/1
(config-t1 1/1)#do show interfaces fr 7
no
To undo an issued command or to disable a feature, enter
no
before the command.
For example:
no shutdown t1 1/1
copy running-config startup-config
When you are ready to save the changes made to the
configuration, enter this command. This copies your
changes to the unit’s nonvolatile random access memory
(NVRAM). Once the save is complete, the changes are
retained even if the unit is shut down or suffers a power
outage.
show running config
Displays the current configuration.
debug
Use the debug command to troubleshoot problems you
may be experiencing on your network. These commands
provide additional information to help you better interpret
possible problems. For information on specific debug
commands, refer to the section
undebug all
To turn off any active debug commands, enter this
command.
The overhead associated with the debug command takes up a large portion of your AOS
product’s resources and at times can halt other processes. It is best to only use the debug
command during times when the network resources are in low demand (non-peak hours,
weekends, etc.).
