Chapter 2 Utilizing the Command Line Interface
Managing the XSR
 If you want to convert your startup configuration into the running
configuration, you can issue the
reload command which reboots the
XSR and reloads the startup configuration.
 If you want to save the startup configuration to a remote site using a
TFTP server, issue the
copy startup-config tftp: command. See
the associated command below.
 If you want to load the configuration manually from a remote site
using a TFTP server, issue the
copy tftp: startup-config
command. Refer to “Bulk Configuration Management” on page 29
for more information about this and the previous command.
To view the running-config, use the
show running-config command. To
view the
startup-config, issue the more startup-config command.
For more command details, refer to the XSR CLI Reference Guide.
Using File System Commands
A set of MS-DOS compatible commands are available for use in conjunction
with configuration files. The XSR has a file system residing in the XSR’s non-
volatile memory.
You can copy files with the
copy command, remove files with the delete
command, display files with the
more command, verify a packed software
image file with the
verify command, and change and list directory contents
with the
cd and dir commands, respectively.
For more command details, refer to the XSR CLI Reference Guide.
Bulk Configuration Management
The XSR can be configured in one action by storing CLI commands as a script
in an ASCII file then transferring the file to the router remotely using TFTP or
locally from
cflash:. There is a limitation in the size of the stored file,
though. If the file is larger than the limit, then the download operation will
abort producing an error message.
