Dynamic Management, Executing Cfgedit | Enterasys Networks CSX6000

USER’S GUIDE

EXECUTING CFGEDIT

After the system software has been loaded, you can start CFGEDIT by entering the following command at the system prompt as shown below:

[product name]> cfgedit

As long as there is no other “change” session active (CFGEDIT or Manage Mode), access is granted, and the following menu is displayed:

Main Menu:

1)Physical Resources

2)Options

3)Security

4)Save Changes

Select function from above or <RET> to exit:

From this screen you will begin the configuration process. Refer to Basic Configuration and succeeding chapters for details on using this utility to perform specific configuration tasks.

Remember, changes to CFGEDIT are NOT dynamic. Changes are saved in a temporary copy of configuration data, and will not affect the current operation of the system in any way.

SAVING CFGEDIT CHANGES

To terminate the session, return to the main CFGEDIT menu. If you have made changes, select option 4 (Save Changes) before exiting. If you attempt to exit without saving, you will be prompted to do one of the following:

•save changes (Y) and exit

•do not save changes (N) and exit

•do not save changes as yet, but return to the Main Menu for further configuration <RET>

To save changes at this point, answer Y for yes:

Save changes and exit (Y or N)? or press <RET> for previous menu:

The save process also includes all unsaved Manage Mode changes which were made prior to the CFGEDIT session, if any.

At your earliest possible convenience, restart the CyberSWITCH. This will then activate the new configuration data.
