CLI configuration commands

command-alias enable
Description
Use command-alias enable to enable the command alias function.
Use undo command-alias enable to disable the command alias function (disabled is the default
condition).
Syntax
command-alias enable
undo command-alias enable
View
System view
Default level
2: System level
Parameters
None
Examples
1.
Enable the command alias function.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] command-alias enable
2.
Disable the command alias function.

[Sysname] undo command-alias enable
command-alias mapping
Description
Use command-alias mapping to configure command aliases.
Use undo command-alias mapping to restore the original configuration. By default, a command has no
alias.
Syntax
command-alias mapping cmdkey alias
undo command-alias mapping cmdkey
View
System view
1
Default level
2: System level
Parameters
cmdkey: The complete form of the first keyword of a command.
alias: Specifies the command alias, which cannot be the same as the first keyword of an existing
command.
Examples
1.
Configure command aliases by specifying show as the replacement of the display keyword.
[Sysname] command-alias mapping display show
After you configure the command aliases, the display commands have aliases. For example, if the
original command is display clock, now its alias is show clock and you can input the alias to view the
system time and date.
2.
Delete the command aliases by canceling the replacement of the display keyword.
[Sysname] undo command-alias mapping display
command-privilege
Description
Use command-privilege to change the command privilege level in the specified view. Command levels
include four privileges: visit (0), monitor (1), system (2), and manage (3).
By default, each command in a view has a specified privilege level. Changes can cause maintenance,
operation, and security problems. HP recommends that you use the default command level or that you
modify the command level under the guidance of professional staff.
Assign a privilege level according to the users need. When logging in to the switch, the user can access
the assigned level and all levels below it.
The command specified in command-privilege must be complete and have valid arguments. For
example, the default level of the tftp server-address { get | put | sget } source-filename [ destinationfilename ] [ source { interface interface-type interface-number | ip source-ip-address } ] command is
3. After command-privilege level 0 view shell tftp 1.1.1.1 put a.cfg is executed, users with privilege
level 0 log in to the switch, and can execute the tftp server-address put source-filename command
(such as tftp 192.168.1.26 put syslog.txt). They cannot execute the command with the get, sget or
source keyword, and cannot specify the destination-filename argument.
The command specified in undo command-privilege view can be incomplete. For example, after
undo command-privilege view system ftp is executed, all commands starting with the keyword ftp
(such as ftp server acl, ftp server enable, and ftp timeout) are restored to their default levels. If you
have modified the level of ftp server enable and ftp timeout and you want to restore only ftp server
enable to its default level, use undo command-privilege view system ftp server.
If you modify the command level of in a specified view from the default level to a lower level, modify
the command levels of the quit command and the corresponding command that is used to enter this
view. For example, the default command level of interface and system-view is 2 (system level). If you
want to make the interface command available to the level 1 users, execute the following three
commands: command-privilege level 1 view shell system-view, command-privilege level 1
view system interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1, and command-privilege level 1 view system quit. The
2
level 1 users can enter system view, execute the interface GigabitEthernet command, and return to
user view.
Use undo command-privilege view to disable the change.
Syntax
command-privilege level level view view command
undo command-privilege view view command
View
System view
Default level
3: Manage level
Parameters
level level: Command level, which ranges from 0 to 3.
view view: Specifies a view. The value represents a user view. The view argument must be the view where
the command resides.
command: Command to be set in the specified view.
Example
# Set the command level of the system-view command to 3 in system view. (By default, level 2 and level
3 users can use the system-view command. After the configuration, only level 3 users can use this
command.)
[Sysname] command-privilege level 3 view shell system-view

need. When logging in to the switch, the user can access the assigned level and all levels below it.
10
A user can switch to a lower privilege level unconditionally. To switch to a higher privilege level:
An AUX user can switch to a higher privilege level without entering any password.
A VTY user must input the switching password set by the super password command to switch to a
higher privilege level. If the password is incorrect or no password is configured, the switching
operation fails.
Related commands: super password.
Syntax
super [ level ]
View
User view
Default level
0: Visit level
Parameter
level: User level, which ranges from 0 to 3 and defaults to 3.
Examples
1.
Switch to user privilege level 2 from privilege level 3.

<Sysname> super 2
User privilege level is 2, and only those commands can be used
whose level is equal or less than this.
Privilege note: 0-VISIT, 1-MONITOR, 2-SYSTEM, 3-MANAGE
2.
Switch the user privilege level back to 3 (the switching password 123 has been set). If no
password is set, the user privilege level cannot be switched to 3.
<Sysname> super 3
Password:
User privilege level is 3, and only those commands can be used
whose level is equal or less than this.
Privilege note: 0-VISIT, 1-MONITOR, 2-SYSTEM, 3-MANAGE
super authentication-mode
Description
Use super authentication-mode to set the authentication mode for user privilege level switch.
Use undo super authentication-mode to restore the default condition (authentication mode).
Related commands: super password.
Syntax
super authentication-mode { local | scheme } *
undo super authentication-mode
View
System view
11
Default level
2: System level
Parameters
local: Authenticates a user by using the local password set by the super password command. When no
password is set, two results can occur: the privilege level switch succeeds if the user is logged in through
the AUX user interface; the switch operation fails if the user logs in through a VTY user interface. If the
user enters the incorrect password, the switch operation fails.
scheme: AAA authentication. For more information about AAA, see the Security Configuration Guide.
local scheme: First local and then scheme, which authenticates a user by using the local password first. If
no password is set, the user logged in through the AUX user interface can switch the privilege level; other
users need to pass AAA authentication before they can switch the privilege level.
scheme local: First scheme and then local, which authenticates a user by performing the AAA
authentication first. If the AAA configuration is invalid (the domain parameters or authentication scheme
are not configured) or the server does not respond, the local password authentication is performed.
Examples
1.
Set the authentication mode for the user privilege level switch to local.
[Sysname] super authentication-mode local
2.
Set the authentication mode for the user privilege level switch to scheme local.
[Sysname] super authentication-mode scheme local
super password
Description
Use super password to set the password used to switch user privilege to a higher level.
Use the simple parameter to set a simple-text password.
Use the cipher parameter to set a cipher-text password. A cipher-text password is recommended.
During authentication, you must input a cipher-text password regardless of the password type you set.
Use undo super password to restore the default condition (no password is set).
Syntax
super password [ level user-level ] { simple | cipher } password
undo super password [ level user-level ]
View
System view
Default level
2: System level
Parameters
level user-level: User privilege level, which ranges from 1 to 3 and defaults to 3.
simple: Plain-text password, a string of 1 to 16 characters.

12
cipher: Cipher-text password. A cipher password is a string of 1 to 16 characters in plain text or 24

characters in cipher text. For example, the simple text 1234567 corresponds to the cipher text
(TT8F]Y\5SQ=^Q`MAF4<1!!.
password: Password, a case-sensitive string of characters.
Examples
1.
Set simple-text password abc for switching to user privilege level 3.

[Sysname] super password level 3 simple abc
2.

acl (user interface view)
Description
Use acl to reference ACLs to control access to the VTY user interface.
If no ACL is referenced in VTY user interface view, the VTY user interface has no access control over
establishing a Telnet or SSH connection.
If an ACL is referenced in VTY user interface view, the connection is permitted only when packets
establishing a Telnet or SSH connection match a permit statement in the ACL.
The system regards the basic/advanced ACL with the inbound keyword, the basic/advanced ACL
with the outbound keyword, Ethernet frame header ACL as four different types of ACLs, which can
coexist in one VTY user interface.
The match order is basic/advanced ACL, Ethernet frame header ACL. At most one ACL of each type
can be referenced in the same VTY user interface, and the last configured one takes effect.
Use undo acl to cancel the ACL application. For more information about ACL, see the ACL and QoS
Configuration Guide. By default, access to the VTY user interface is not restricted.
Syntax
To use a basic or advanced ACL:
acl [ ipv6 ] acl-number { inbound | outbound }

undo acl [ ipv6 ] acl-number { inbound | outbound }
To use an Ethernet frame header ACL:
acl acl-number inbound

undo acl acl-number inbound
View
VTY user interface view
Default level
2: System level
Parameters
ipv6: When this keyword is present, the command supports IPv6; otherwise, it supports IPv4.
acl-number: Number of the ACL. The value range varies with devices:
Basic ACL: 2000 to 2999
Advanced ACL: 3000 to 3999
Ethernet frame header ACL: 4000 to 4999
inbound: Restricts Telnet or SSH connections established in the inbound direction through the VTY user
interface. If the received packets for establishing a Telnet or SSH connection are permitted by an ACL rule,
15
the connection is allowed to be established. When the device functions as a Telnet server or SSH server,
this keyword is used to control access of Telnet clients or SSH clients.
outbound: Restricts Telnet connections established in the outbound direction through the VTY user
interface. If the packets sent for establishing a Telnet connection are permitted by an ACL rule, the
connection is allowed to be established. When the device functions as a Telnet client, this keyword is
used to define Telnet servers accessible to the client.
Example
# Allow only the user with the IP address of 192.168.1.26 to access the device through Telnet or SSH.
[Sysname] acl number 2001
[Sysname-acl-basic-2001] rule permit source 192.168.1.26 0
[Sysname-acl-basic-2001] quit
[Sysname] user-interface vty 0
[Sysname-ui-vty0] acl 2001 inbound
With this configuration, user A (with IP address 192.168.1.26) can Telnet to the device but user B (with IP
address 192.168.1.60) cannot. If a connection failure occurs, the "%connection closed by remote
host!" message will appear.
activation-key
Description
Use activation-key to define a shortcut key for starting a terminal session.
The activation-key command is not supported by the VTY user interface.
To display the shortcut key you have defined, use the display current-configuration| include
activation-key command.
If a new shortcut key is defined with the activation-key command, the Enter key no longer functions.
Use undo activation-key to restore the default. By default, pressing the Enter key starts a terminal session.
Syntax
activation-key character
undo activation-key
View
User interface view
Default level
3: Manage level
16
Parameters
character: Shortcut key for starting a terminal session, a single character (or its ASCII code value that
ranges from 0 to 127) or a string of one to three characters. Only the first character functions as the
shortcut key. For example, if you input an ASCII code value of 97, the system uses its character a as the
shortcut key. If you input string b@c, the system uses the first character b as the shortcut key.
Examples
1.
Configure character s as the shortcut key for starting a terminal session on the console port.
[Sysname] user-interface aux 0
[Sysname-ui-aux0] activation-key s
To verify the configuration, perform the following operations:

2.
Exit the terminal session on the console port.

[Sysname-ui-aux0] return
<Sysname> quit
3.

auto-execute command
Description
CAUTION:
Applying auto-execute command to the user interface may disable you from configuring the system.
Before configuring the command and saving the configuration (by using the save command), make
sure that you can access the device through VTY and AUX interfaces to remove the configuration when
a problem occurs.
auto-execute command is not supported by the console port.
Use auto-execute command to specify a command automatically executed when a user logs in to the
current user interface.
The system automatically executes the command when a user logs in to the user interface, and tears
down the user connection after the command is executed.
17
If the command triggers another task, the system does not tear down the user connection until the
task is completed.
Use undo auto-execute command to remove the configuration. By default, command auto-execution is
disabled.

escape-key
Description
Use escape-key to define a shortcut key for aborting a task. The new shortcut key functions to terminate a
task.
If you set the character parameter in a user interface of a device to log in to the device and then Telnet to
another device, the character argument can only be used as a control character to abort a task (not for
input as a common character). This can cause problems, which you can avoid by specifying character as
a key combination rather than as a single character.
For example, in a VTY 0 user interface, if you specify character as e on Device A and log in to Device A
on a PC (Hyper Terminal):
The problem does not occur on Device A. Enter e as a common character on the A, and also use e
to terminate the task running on Device A.
The problem occurs if you Telnet from Device A to Device B. On Device B, you can only use e to
terminate the task running on Device B. You cannot input e as a common character (as part of
another command, for example) To avoid this, specify character as a key combination.
Use undo escape-key to restore the default key combination (Ctrl+C).

29
To display the shortcut key you have defined, use the display current-configuration command.
Syntax
escape-key { default | character }
undo escape-key
View
User interface view
Default level
3: Manage level
Parameters
character: Specifies the shortcut key for aborting a task, a single character (or its ASCII code value in the
range 0 to 127), or a string of 1 to 3 characters. Only the first character of a string functions as the
shortcut key. If you enter an ASCII code value of 113, the system uses its character q as the shortcut key. If
you enter the string q@c, the system uses the first character q as the shortcut key.
default: Restores the default escape key combination of Ctrl+C.
Examples
# Define key a as the shortcut key for aborting a task.
[Sysname-ui-aux0] escape-key a
# To verify the configuration, perform the following operations:

1.
Use the ping command to check the reachability of the device with the IP address of
192.168.1.49, and use the -c keyword to specify the number of ICMP echo packets to be
sent as 20.

screen-length
Description
Not all display terminals support this command setting.
Use screen-length to set the number of lines on the next screen.
Because terminal display varies, you may need to press the Space, Page Up, or Page Down key to display
additional lines of information. For example, if you set screen-length to 40, but the terminal screen can
display only 24 lines: When you press Space, the device sends 40 lines, but the next screen displays only
lines 18 through 40. To view the first 17 lines, you must press the Page Up or Page Down key.
Use undo screen-length to restore the default next screen display (24 lines).
To disable multiple-screen output of the current user interface, use the screen-length disable command. For
more information about the screen-length disable command, see CLI configuration commands.

ftp client source

Description
Use ftp client source to configure the source address of packets transmitted by the FTP client.
The source address can be specified as the source interface and the source IP address. If you
use ftp client source to specify the source interface and then the source IP address, the newly
specified source IP address overwrites the configured source interface and vice versa.
If the source address is specified with ftp client source and then with the ftp command, the
source address specified with the latter one is used to communicate with the FTP server.
The source address specified with ftp client source is valid for all FTP connections and the source
address specified with the ftp command is valid only for the current FTP connection.
Use undo ftp client source to restore the default. By default, a device uses the IP address of the
interface determined by the matched route as the source IP address to communicate with an FTP
server.

execute
Description
Use execute to run the batch file.
Batch files are command line files. Executing a batch file is to execute a set of command lines in
the file.
Do not include invisible characters in a batch file. When the system encounters them during
processing, the batch process will abort and the commands that have been executed cannot be
cancelled.
Incorrectly configured batch file commands will not execute. When encountered, the system
omits these commands and proceeds to the next command.
Each configuration command in a batch file must be a standard configuration command,

meaning that the valid configuration information can be displayed with the display currentconfiguration command.
The configuration generated after a batch file executes is not automatically backed up to the
standby main board.

Configuration file management commands

archive configuration
Description
Use archive configuration to manually save the running configuration.
Before executing archive configuration, you must configure the filename prefix and path for
saving configuration files using the archive configuration location command.
When archive configuration executes, the running configuration file (filename prefix + serial
number) is saved to the master. The subordinate switches do not perform the saving operation.
Syntax
archive configuration
View
User view
Default level
3: Manage level
Parameters
None
Example
# Save the running configuration manually.
<Sysname> archive configuration
Warning: Save the running configuration to an archive file. Continue? [Y/N]: Y
Please wait...
Info: The archive configuration file myarchive_1.cfg is saved.
archive configuration interval

Description
Use archive configuration interval to enable the automatic saving of the running configuration and set
the interval.
Before executing the archive configuration interval command, you must configure the filename
prefix and path for saving configuration files by using the archive configuration location
command.
The archive configuration interval command executes on the master and its subordinate switches.
Executing this command on the subordinate switches ensures configuration rollback after the
master is changed.
Configure an automatic saving interval according to the storage media performance and the
frequency of configuration modification.
105
If switch configuration does not change frequently, HP recommends that you save the running
configuration manually.
Use undo archive configuration interval to restore the default (the system does not automatically save
by default).
Syntax
archive configuration interval minutes
undo archive configuration interval
View
System view
Default level
3: Manage level
Parameter
minutes: Specifies the interval for automatically saving the running configuration, in minutes. The
value ranges from 10 to 525,600 (365 days).
Example
# Configure the system to save the running configuration every 60 minutes.
[Sysname] archive configuration interval 60
Info: Archive files will be saved every 60 minutes.
archive configuration location

Description
Before executing this command, verify that the path is available on both the master and the
subordinate switches. The path cannot include any member ID.
Use archive configuration location to configure the path and filename prefix for saving configuration
files on both master and subordinate switches.
Before the running configuration is saved either manually or automatically, the file path and
filename prefix must be configured.
When the switch is operating in active/standby mode, the saving and rollback operations are
executed only on the master. After the active/standby switchover, the configuration rollback can
take effect on the new master.
Use undo archive configuration location to restore the default.
By default, the path and filename prefix for saving configuration files are not configured, and the
system does not save the configuration file periodically.
If this command is executed, the running configuration cannot be saved manually or

automatically.
The configuration done by executing the archive configuration interval and archive configuration
max commands will restore the default, and clear the saved configuration files.
106
Syntax
archive configuration location directory filename-prefix filename-prefix
undo archive configuration location
View
System view
Default level
3: Manage level
Parameters
directory: The path of the folder for saving configuration files, a string of 1 to 63 case-insensitive
characters, in the format of storage media name:/[folder name]/subfolder name. The folder must be
created before the configuration.
filename-prefix: The filename prefix for saving configuration files, a case-insensitive string of 1 to 30
characters (can include letters, numbers, _, and - only).
Example
# Configure the path and the filename prefix for saving configuration files as flash:/archive/ and
my_archive respectively.
Create folder flash:/archive on the master.

<Sysname> mkdir archive
.
%Created dir flash:/archive.
Create folder flash:/archive on a subordinate switch with the member ID 2.

<Sysname> mkdir slot2#flash:/archive
%Created dir slot2#flash:/archive.
Configure the path and the filename prefix for saving configuration files.
[Sysname] archive configuration location flash:/archive filename-prefix
my_archive
archive configuration max

Description
Before executing this command, configure the path and filename prefix for saving configuration files
by using the archive configuration location command; otherwise, the execution of this command fails.
If the undo archive configuration location command is executed, the maximum number of
configuration files that can be saved also restores to the default.
Use archive configuration max to set the maximum number of configuration files that can be saved.
Excessive configuration files occupy large memory space: Use this command to control the
number of files.
After the maximum number of configuration files is saved, the system deletes the oldest files
when the next file is saved (either automatically or manually).
107
When you change the maximum number of configuration files that can be saved, the exceeded
files are not deleted.
If the number of the existing configuration files is larger than or equal to the newly configured
upper limit, the system deletes the oldest n files when the next file is saved, where n = the current
number - the newly configured number + 1, for example: if the number of configuration files that
have been saved is 7, and the newly configured upper limit is 4, when there is a new
configuration file to be saved, the system deletes the 4 oldest files, where 4 = 7-4+1.
Use undo archive configuration max to restore the default (five is the maximum number of
configuration files saved by default).
Syntax
archive configuration max file-number
undo archive configuration max
View
System view
Default level
3: Manage level
Parameter
file-number: The maximum number of configuration files that can be saved, in the range 1 to 10. The
value of the file-number argument is determined by the memory space. If the available memory space
is small, set a comparatively small value for this argument.
Example
# Set the maximum number of configuration files that can be saved to 10.
[Sysname] archive configuration max 10
backup startup-configuration
Description
For a switch that has main and backup startup configuration files, this command only backs up the
main startup configuration file.
Currently, the switch uses TFTP to back up configuration files.
Use backup startup-configuration to back up the startup configuration file for the next system startup
to a specified TFTP server. If you do not specify this filename, the original filename is used.
Syntax
backup startup-configuration to dest-addr [ dest-filename ]
View
User view
Default level
2: System level
108
Parameters
dest-addr: IP address or name of a TFTP server. The address cannot be an IPv6 address.

192-168-1-26.cfg.
configuration replace file

Description
Use configuration replace file to set configuration rollback.
The configuration file specified with the configuration replace file filename command can only
be a simple-text file. Otherwise, errors can occur during configuration rollback.
When this command is executed, the running configuration rolls back to the configuration state
based on the specified configuration file (filename).
Syntax

reset saved-configuration
Description
Use reset saved-configuration to delete the startup configuration files saved on the storage media of
the device.
This command will permanently delete the startup configuration file from all member devices of
the IRF virtual device. Use it with caution.
You can delete either the main or backup startup configuration file. However, if these files are
the same, the system will only set the corresponding startup configuration file (main or backup,
according to which one you specified in the command) to NULL.
Both the reset saved-configuration command and the reset saved-configuration main command
delete the main startup configuration file.

restore startup-configuration
Description
Use restore startup-configuration to download a configuration file from the specified TFTP server to
the switch, and specify it as the startup configuration file for the next system startup.
The downloaded file is set as the main startup configuration file for the next system startup.
This command downloads the configuration file to the storage media root directory of all
member devices and specifies the file as the startup configuration file for the next startup of all
member devices.
If the file to be downloaded has the same filename as an existing file on a member device, a
prompt asks if you want to overwrite the existing file.
Both master and subordinate switches are assumed to use the same type of storage media when
the device is checking the filename or backing up the configuration file to the subordinate
switches. If the master and the subordinate switches are of different types, the backup operation
fails.
When backing up the configuration file to the subordinate switches, the device saves the file to
the root directory.

save
Description
Use save file-url [ all | slot slot-number ] to save the current configuration to the specified
configuration file, but not the startup configuration file for the next system startup.
If the file specified by file-url does not exist, the system will create the file and then save the
configuration to the file.
If the all or slot parameter is not included, the configuration is saved to the master.
Use save [ safely ] [ backup | main ] [ force ] to save the current configuration to the root
directory of a member devices storage media, and specify the file as the startup configuration
file for the next system startup. If the backup keyword is not included, the main keyword is used
by default.
The configuration file auto-save function determines whether the save [ safely ] [ backup | main ]
[ force ] command or the save file-url all command+Enter takes effect on all member devices or
only on the master.
Related commands: slave auto-update config, reset saved-configuration, display currentconfiguration, and display saved-configuration.

2: System level
Parameters
file-url: File path, where the extension of the file name must be .cfg. When used with the keyword all
or slot, this argument cannot include a member ID. If the file path includes a folder name, you must
first create the folder on the member device; otherwise, the operation will fail.
all: Saves the current configuration in the specified filename to all member devices of an IRF virtual
device..
slot slot-number: Saves the current configuration in the specified filename to a subordinate switch. slotnumber represents the member ID of a member device of an IRF virtual device.
safely: Sets the configuration saving mode to safe. If this argument is not specified, the configuration
file is saved in fast mode.
backup: Saves the current configuration to the startup configuration file specified in the interactive
mode, and specifies the file as the backup startup configuration file for the next system startup.
main: Saves the current configuration to the main startup configuration file specified in the interactive
mode, and specifies the file as the main startup configuration file for the next system startup.
force: Saves the current configuration to the configuration file for the next system startup, and the
system does not output any interaction information. By default, when you execute the save command,
the system asks you to input Y or N to confirm your operation. If you do not confirm your operation
122
within 30 seconds, the system automatically quits the operation. If you provide the force keyword
when executing the save command, the system directly saves the current configuration, not requiring
any confirmation.

startup saved-configuration
Description
Before using the command, ensure that the configuration file has been saved to the root directories of
the storage media of all the member devices.
Use startup saved-configuration to specify a next system startup configuration file for all member
devices.
The startup configuration file for the next startup of all the member devices must be the same.
The startup saved-configuration and startup saved-configuration main commands have the
same effect: Use both of them to specify the main startup configuration file.
The main and backup startup configuration files can be specified as the same file. However, HP
recommends that you use different files, or, save the same configuration file twice naming one
the main startup configuration file, and the other the backup.
Use undo startup saved-configuration to configure all the member devices to start up with the null
(factory) configuration.
If you execute the undo startup saved-configuration command, the system sets the main and
backup startup configuration file as NULL, but does not delete the two configuration files.
When you execute the undo startup saved-configuration command and reboot the IRF virtual
device or an IRF member device, the IRF virtual device is partitioned.
Related commands: display startup.

boot-loader
Description
Use boot-loader to specify a boot file for the next device boot of a member switch.
To execute the boot-loader command successfully, save the file to be used at the next device
boot in the root directory of the storage media on a member switch.
If the storage media is on the master, specify the storage media by giving its name, such as
flash.
If the storage media is on a subordinate switch, specify the storage media by giving its name
and the member ID of the switch, that is, in the format of slotslot-number# StorageMediumName
(slot-number represents the member ID of the subordinate), such as slot2#flash.
When you specify the masters boot file, the file-url parameter cannot contain the devices
member ID, and slot-number should be specified as the masters member ID.
When you specify the subordinate switchs boot file, the file-url argument must contain the
member ID (such as slot2#flash:/test.bin), and slot-number should be specified as the
subordinate switchs member ID.
If you provide the keyword all, the file-url parameter cannot contain a member ID, otherwise, the
execution of this command will fail. You must save the boot file on the storage media of all
member switches in the same filename, otherwise, member switches without this file will fail to
be reconfigured during the reboot.
The names of the files for the next boot of the master and subordinate switches may be different,
but the file versions must be the same, otherwise, a subordinate switch will reboot using the
master's boot file and rejoin the IRF virtual device.
Related commands: display boot-loader.

shutdown-interval
Description
Use shutdown-interval to set a detection interval.
Use undo shutdown-interval to restore the default detection interval of 30 seconds.
Some protocol modules might shut down ports under specific circumstances. For example, an MSTP
module will automatically shut down a port that receives configuration messages after the BPDU
guard function is enabled on the port. Then, the MSTP module enables a detection timer and detects
the status of the port. If the port is still down when the detection timer times out, the MSTP module will
automatically bring up the port.
If you change the detection interval to T1 during port detection, the interval from when you
change the interval to the time when the protocol module shuts down the port is T. If T<T1, the
port which is down will be brought up after T1-T time. If T>=T1, the port which is down will be
brought up immediately. For example, if the detection interval is set to 30 seconds and you
change it to 10 seconds (T1=10) two seconds after the port is shut down (T=2), this port will be
brought up 8 seconds later. If the detection interval is set to 30 seconds and you change it to 2
seconds ten seconds after the port is shut down, this port will be brought up immediately.
If the detection interval is set to 0, the protocol module will never automatically recover the port.
You need to manually bring up the port by using the undo shutdown command or change the
detection interval to a non-zero value.

time delay
Description
Use time delay to configure a scheduled task to be executed after a delay time.
The commands in a scheduled task must be in the same view.
A scheduled task can contain up to 10 commands.
To execute more than 10 commands, configure them in different tasks.
Use undo time to remove it (by default no time delay is configured).
Syntax
time time-id { one-off | repeating } delay time command command
undo time time-id
View
Scheduled task view
Default level
3: Manage level
Parameters
time time-id: Time setting entry, where time-id is an integer ranging from 1 to 10. A scheduled task
can be specified with up to 10 time setting entries.
one-off: Specifies that the specified command is executed for once. That is, the command is executed
when the time is reached, and will not be executed when the time is reached next time.
repeating: Specifies a recurring time schedule.
197
delay time: Specifies the delay time for executing the command, in the hh:mm format or mm format.
When the time argument is in the hh:mm format, the hh value ranges from 0 to 720, and the
mm value ranges from 0 to 59. When the hh value is 720, the mm value can be only 00.
When the time argument is in the mm format, the mm value ranges from 1 to 43,200. That is,
the maximum value of the delay timer is 30 days.
The delay time parameter is unrelated to the system time. Even though the system time changes, the
command is executed after the specified delay time.
command command: Command to run at a specified time.
Example
# Configure a scheduled task so that PoE is disabled on the device five hours after the command is
configured.
[Sysname] job phone
[Sysname-job-phone] time 3 one-off delay 5:00 command undo poe enable
view
Description
Use view to specify a view where the commands are to be executed.
Use undo view to remove the view existing in a scheduled task and restore the default (no view is
specified by default).
Only one view can be specified for a scheduled task and all the commands are automatically
executed in that view. If the view view-name command is executed repeatedly, only the last
configuration takes effect.
Syntax
view view-name
undo view
View
Scheduled task view
Default level
3: Manage level
Parameter
view-name: View name, which a string of 1 to 90 characters used to specify in which view the
commands in a scheduled task are executed.
Examples
# Specify system view where the specified commands are to be executed.
[Sysname] job saveconfig
[Sysname-job-saveconfig] view system
