confreg
confreg
To configure the configuration register utility, use the confreg command.
confreg [num]
Syntax Description
Defaults This command has no default settings.
Command Types ROM monitor command.
Command Modes Normal.
Usage Guidelines Executed with the confreg argument num, the VCR changes to match the number specified.
Without the argument, confreg dumps the contents of the VCR in English and allows you to alter the
contents.
You are prompted to change or keep the information held in each bit of the VCR. In either case, the new
VCR value is written into NVRAM and does not take effect until you reset or power cycle the platform.
You must issue a sync command to save your change. Otherwise, the change is not saved and a reset
removes your change.
Examples This example shows how to use the confreg command:
rommon 7 > confreg
