Chapter 4 Configuring General Router Features

Managing Configuration Sessions

Examples

In the following example, the default commit command is entered in global configuration mode:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface POS 0/0/0/2

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# description faq

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# ipv4 address 10.1.1.1 255.0.0.0

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# commit

RP/0/0/0:Aug 6 09:26:17.781 : %LIBTARCFG-6-COMMIT Configuration committed by user ‘cisco'. Use 'show configuration commit changes 1000000124' to view the changes.

Note The preceding message is stored in the log and appears only if logging is configured to display on screen.

In the next example, the commit command is entered with the label and comment options in administration configuration mode:

RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# admin RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin)# configure RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin-config)# sdr test RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin-config-sdr:test)# location 0/1/* primary RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin-config-sdr:test)# commit label test comment This is a test RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(admin-config)# show configuration commit list detail

Note Configuration files are stored on the same flash disk as the boot image. Access these configurations only through the CLI commands for configuration management, history, and rollback. Direct modification or deletion of these files can result in lost router configurations.

Reloading a Failed Configuration

If the router displays a configuration failure message when you attempt to commit a configuration change, the configuration changes are not lost. While you remain in global configuration mode or administration configuration mode, you can load the configuration changes into the target configuration, correct the errors, and commit the changes. To load a failed configuration, go to global configuration or administration configuration mode and enter the load configuration failed commit command, as shown in the following example:

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# load configuration failed commit

RP/0/0/CPU0:router(config)# show configuration
