Chapter 7 Basic SCE 1000 Platform Operations

Managing SCE 1000 Configurations

Another useful show command is the show system-uptimecommand. This command displays information similar to the last line above, which indicates how long the system has been running since the last reboot.

To show the system uptime for the SCE 1000 software and hardware, complete the following steps:

At the SCE 1000# prompt, type show system-uptime.

The system shows how long the system has been running since the last reboot.

SCE 1000#show system-uptime

SCE 1000 uptime is 21 minutes, 37 seconds

SCE 1000#

Saving the Configuration Settings

When you make changes to the current running configuration and you want those changes to continue to be valid when the system restarts, you must save the changes before leaving the management session, that is, you must save the running configuration to the startup configuration file.

The SCE 1000 platform provides multiple interfaces for the purpose of configuration and management. All interfaces supply an API to the same database of the SCE 1000 platform and any configuration made through one interface is reflected through all interfaces. Furthermore, when saving the running configuration to the startup configuration from any management interface, all configuration settings are saved regardless of the management interface used to set the configuration.

To save configuration changes, complete the following steps:

Step 1 At the SCE 1000# prompt, type show running-configto view the running configuration. The running configuration is displayed.

Step 2 Check the displayed configuration to make sure that it is set the way you want. If not, make the changes you want before saving.

Step 3 Type copy running-config startup-config.

The system saves all running configuration information to the configuration file, which is used when the system reboots.

The configuration file holds all information that is different from the system default in a file called config.txt located in the directory: tffs0:system.

EXAMPLE:

The following example shows the running configuration file.

SCE 1000#show running-config

#This is a general configuration file (running-config).
