User Guidelines
The system mode appears in the configuration file header to specify the
system mode. It appears even if it specifies the default system mode.
Changing the system mode:
• Manually setting the system mode: If this command is entered manually,
the Startup Configuration file is deleted and the device is rebooted. It is
highly recommended to back up the Startup Configuration file before
executing this command since the device will be configured in the new
system mode with an empty configuration.
• Configuration download: If the system mode is contained in a
configuration file that is downloaded to the device, but the system mode
in the downloaded file matches the current system mode, this information
is ignored. Otherwise the following cases might occur:
1. If this file is copied manually onto the device (using copy tftp, for
example), the operation is aborted, and a message is displayed indicating
that the system mode must be changed manually.
2. If this file is downloaded during the automatic configuration process,
the Startup Configuration file is deleted and the device reboots
automatically in the new system mode and the device is configured with
an empty configuration.
Example
The following example configures the device to function as a ipv4 router.
console# set system mode layer-2-plus-IPv4-static-routing
Changing the system mode causes the device to automatically
reboot itself after erasing the startup-configuration file.
You must save the running-config file and then reload it
after reboot if you want to restore your current
configuration. Would you like to continue? [n]"
show system mode
The show system mode EXEC mode command displays information on
features control.
