Chapter 47 File Manager

Your configuration files or shell scripts can use “exit” or a command line consisting of a single “!” to have the ZyWALL exit sub command mode.

Note: “exit” or “!'” must follow sub commands if it is to make the ZyWALL exit sub command mode.

Line 3 in the following example exits sub command mode.

interface ge1 ip address dhcp

!

Lines 1 and 3 in the following example are comments and line 4 exits sub command mode.

!

interface ge1

#this interface is a DHCP client

!

Lines 1 and 2 are comments. Line 5 exits sub command mode.

!this is from Joe

# on 2008/04/05 interface ge1 ip address dhcp

Errors in Configuration Files or Shell Scripts

When you apply a configuration file or run a shell script, the ZyWALL processes the file line-by-line. The ZyWALL checks the first line and applies the line if no errors are detected. Then it continues with the next line. If the ZyWALL finds an error, it stops applying the configuration file or shell script and generates a log.

You can change the way a configuration file or shell script is applied. Include setenv stop-on-error off in the configuration file or shell script. The ZyWALL ignores any errors in the configuration file or shell script and applies all of the valid commands. The ZyWALL still generates a log for any errors.
