Configuration Scripting

This section describes the Configuration Scripting feature.

Overview

Configuration Scripting:

Allows you to generate text-formatted files

Provides scripts that can be uploaded and downloaded to the system

Provides flexibility to create command configuration scripts

May be applied to several switches

Can save up to ten scripts or 500K of memory

Provides List, Delete, Apply, Upload, Download

Provides script format of one CLI command per line

Considerations

Total number of scripts stored on box limited by NVRAM/FLASH size.

Application of scripts is partial if script fails. For example, if the script executes five of ten
commands and the script fails, the script stops at five.

Scripts cannot be modified or deleted while being applied.

Validation of scripts checks for syntax errors only. It does not validate that the script will run.

CLI Examples

The following are examples of the commands used for the Configuration Scripting feature.
