Note Ensure that the CLI commands in the XML document do not have an
impact on the interface configuration through which the XML file
transfer process is to occur (for example, including the command no
ip addr 10.1.2.3, which identifies the IP address of the CSS
receiving the XML file). If this occurs, you will disconnect the
workstation performing the XML file transfer.
Software is available to simplify the process of publishing XML files to the CSS
HTTP server. These software packages offer a simple method to publish files to a
Web server. This software uses the HTTP protocol to publish files and require no
special software on the Web server side of the connection.
Note An error code in the publishing process usually means that
no restrict xml (for CSS software version 4.x) or the
webmgmt-state enable (for CSS software version 3.x) commands
have not been issued on the CSS prior to publishing the XML file.
See the “Controlling Access to the CSS HTTP Server”section for
details.
Testing the Output of the XML Code
Test the output of the XML code by reviewing the running configuration of the
CSS. After the XML has been successfully published to the CSS, Telnet to the
switch and issue the show running-config command to verify that the XML
changes have properly occurred. If the XML changes are incorrect or missing,
republish the XML code to the CSS as described in the “Publishing the XML
Code to the CSS” section.
