Setup guide
added - places a new item before an existing item with specified position. Thus, you do not need to
use the move command after adding an item to the list - controls disabled/enabled state of the newly
added item(-s) - holds the description of a newly created item
remove - removes item(-s) from a list - contains number(-s) or name(-s) of item(-s) to remove.
move - changes the order of items in list where one is relevant. Item numbers after move command
are left in a consistent, but hardly intuitive order, so it's better to resync them by using print after
each move command. - first argument. Specifies the item(-s) being moved. - second argument.
Specifies the item before which to place all items being moved (they are placed at the end of the list
if the second argument is omitted).
find - The find command has the same arguments as set, and an additional from argument which
works like the from argument with the print command. Plus, find command has flag arguments like
disabled, invalid that take values yes or no depending on the value of respective flag. To see all
flags and their names, look at the top of print command's output. The find command returns internal
numbers of all items that have the same values of arguments as specified.
edit - this command is in every place that has set command, it can be used to edit values of
properties, exempli gratia:
[admin@ID] ip route> print
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid, D - dynamic, J - rejected,
C - connect, S - static, r - rip, o - ospf, b - bgp

Safe Mode
Description
It is possible to change router configuration in a way that will make it not accessible except from
local console. Usually this is done by accident, but there is no way to undo last change when
connection to router is already cut. Safe mode can be used to minimize such risk.
Safe mode is entered by pressing [Ctrl]+[X]. To quit safe mode, press [Ctrl]+[X] again.
[admin@Wandy] ip firewall rule input> [Ctrl]+[X]
[Safe Mode taken]
[admin@Wandy] ip firewall rule input<SAFE>
Message Safe Mode taken is displayed and prompt changes to reflect that session is now in safe
mode. All configuration changes that are made (also from other login sessions), while router is in
safe mode, are automatically undone if safe mode session terminates abnormally. You can see all
such changes that will be automatically undone tagged with an F flag in system history:
[admin@Wandy] ip firewall rule input<SAFE> add
[admin@Wandy] ip firewall rule input<SAFE> /system history print
Flags: U - undoable, R - redoable, F - floating-undo
ACTION BY POLICY
F rule added admin write
[admin@Wandy] ip firewall rule input<SAFE>
Now, if telnet connection is cut, then after a while (TCP timeout is 9 minutes) all changes that were
made while in safe mode will be undone. Exiting session by [Ctrl]+[D]emphasis> also undoes all
safe mode changes, while /quit does not.
