Figure 7 Configuration Desktop
There are four ways to configure a router using the CWI:
• Telnet/SSH/Terminal Plus application from the CWI Desktop.
• Configuration Editor from the CWI Desktop.
• Replace Configuration Editor from the Configuration Desktop.
• Graphical user interface (GUI) applications from the Configuration Desktop.
The Configuration Desktop allows you to view the configuration changes made using the configuration applications or the
Configuration Editor (from the CWI Desktop) using the View Uncommitted Configuration tool. You can click the View
Uncommitted Configuration icon from the Configuration Desktop. The uncommitted configuration (also known as the target
configuration) is displayed in a window in CLI format.
A two-stage running configuration commit functionality, which includes locking, abort, commit, and rollback control, is
provided in the Configuration Desktop.
See the Cisco Craft Works Interface User Interface Guide for detailed information on the Configuration Desktop.
