Configuration Scripting Commands

Configuration Scripting allows you to generate text-formatted script files representing
the current configuration of a system. You can upload these configuration script files to
a PC or UNIX system and edit them. Then, you can download the edited files to the
system and apply the new configuration. You can apply configuration scripts to one or
more switches with no or minor modifications.

Use the

show running-config

command (see 5.4.8 “show running-config” on page 5

- 16) to capture the running configuration into a script. Use the

copy

command (see

5.6.16 “copy” on page 5 - 26) to transfer the configuration script to or from the switch.

You should use scripts on systems with default configuration; however, you are not
prevented from applying scripts on systems with non-default configurations.

Scripts must conform to the following rules:

The file extension must be “.scr”.

A maximum of ten scripts are allowed on the switch.

The combined size of all script files on the switch shall not exceed 2048 KB.

The maximum number of configuration file command lines is 2000.

You can type single-line annotations at the command prompt to use when you write
test or configuration scripts to improve script readability. The exclamation point (!)
character flags the beginning of a comment. The comment flag character can begin a
word anywhere on the command line, and all input following this character is ignored.
Any command line that begins with the “!” character is recognized as a comment line
and ignored by the parser.

The following lines show an example of a script:

! Script file for displaying management access

show telnet !Displays the information about remote connections

! Display information about direct connections

show serial

! End of the script file!

extension fabric (AT8902 only).
