Chapter
SECOND LEVEL COMMANDS
This chapter describes the primary commands available at the second command level. For additional second level
commands, refer to Appendix B: Redirection Server.
Using the configure command
Use the configure terminal command at the first level prompt to switch the system to the second-level configuration
prompt, Host(config)#. This indicates that the user is now in the second level configuration mode and has
access to the second level commands in the configuration menu. These commands change the parameters only in
RAM. You can save a new configuration in the flash memory by returning to the first level prompt and using the write
memory command.
Usage
configure [<network> <ip address> <alpha numeric string]
configure [<terminal>]
Parameter(s)
[<network>]
Copies a previously saved configuration from a TFTP server to NVRAM.
[<ip address>]
The IP address of the TFTP server to which the running configuration will be written.
[<alpha numeric string>]
The filename of the running configuration to be saved.
[<terminal>]
Places the user in the second level command level.
Note: Some non-applicable information was removed from sample screens for ease of viewing.
Note: Use the help facility to view a list of the second level configuration commands and their functions by
typing ? immediately after the second level configuration prompt.
Using the write memory command following the use of the configure parameter will overwrite the
configuration loaded from the TFTP server.
