Functional Notes

The copy console command works much like a line editor. Prior to pressing <Enter>, changes can be

made to the text on the line. Changes can be made using <Delete> and <Backspace> keys. The text can

be traversed using the arrow keys, <Ctrl+A> (to go to the beginning of a line), and <Ctrl+E> (to go to the

end of a line). To end copying to the text file, type <Ctrl+D>. The file will be saved in the Secure Router OS

root directory. Use the dir command to see a list of files in the root directory.

Usage Examples

The following example copies the console input into the file config, located in the Secure Router OS root

directory:

>enable

#copy console config
