Chapter4 Configuring Cisco IOS CNS Agen ts Configuring Cisco IOS Agents
This example shows how to configure an initial configuration on a remote switch when the switch IP
address is known. The Configuration Engine IP address is 172.28.129.22.
Switch(config)# cns template connect template-dhcp
Switch(config-tmpl-conn)# cli ip address dhcp
Switch(config-tmpl-conn)# exit
Switch(config)# cns template connect ip-route
Switch(config-tmpl-conn)# cli ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ${next-hop}
Switch(config-tmpl-conn)# exit
Switch(config)# cns connect dhcp
Switch(config-cns-conn)# discover interface gigabitethernet
Switch(config-cns-conn)# template template-dhcp
Switch(config-cns-conn)# template ip-route
Switch(config-cns-conn)# exit
Switch(config)# hostname RemoteSwitch
RemoteSwitch(config)# ip route 172.28.129.22 255.255.255.255 11.11.11.1
RemoteSwitch(config)# cns id ethernet 0 ipaddress
RemoteSwitch(config)# cns config initial 172.28.129.22 no-persist
Enabling a Partial Configuration
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable the Cisco IOS agent and to initiate a
partial configuration on the switch:
To disable the Cisco IOS agent, use the no cns config partial {ip-address | hostname} global
configuration command. To cancel a partial configuration, use the cns config can cel privileged EXEC
command.
Command Purpose
Step1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step2 cns config partial {ip-address | hostname}
[port-number] [source ip-address]Enable the configuration agent, and initiate a partial configuration.
•For {ip-address | hostname}, enter the IP address or
the hostname of the configuration server.
•(Optional) For port-number, enter the port number of
the configuration server. The default port number is 80.
•(Optional) Enter source ip-address to use for the
source IP address.
Note Though visible in the command-line help string,
the encrypt keyword is not supported.
Step3 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step4 show cns config stats
or
show cns config outstanding
Verify information about the configuration agent.
Step5 show running-config Verify your entries.
Step6 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
