Verifying and Saving Your Configuration


Verifying and Saving Your Configuration
This chapter describes how to verify and save the system configuration.
Verifying the Configuration
You can use a number of commands to verify the configuration of your feature, service, or system. Many are hierarchical in their implementation and some are specific to portions of or specific lines in the configuration file.
Feature Configuration
In many configurations, specific features are set and need to be verified. Examples include APN and IP address pool configuration. Using these examples, enter the following commands to verify proper feature configuration:
show apn all
The output displays the complete configuration for the APN. In this example, an APN called apn1 is configured.
access point name (APN): apn1
authentication context: test
pdp type: ipv4
Selection Mode: subscribed
ip source violation: Checked drop limit: 10
accounting mode: gtpp No early PDUs: Disabled
max-primary-pdp-contexts: 1000000 total-pdp-contexts: 1000000
primary contexts: not available total contexts: not available
local ip: 0.0.0.0
primary dns: 0.0.0.0 secondary dns: 0.0.0.0
ppp keep alive period : 0 ppp mtu : 1500
absolute timeout : 0 idle timeout : 0
long duration timeout: 0 long duration action: Detection
ip header compression: vj
data compression: stac mppc deflate compression mode: normal
min compression size: 128
ip output access-group: ip input access-group:
ppp authentication:
allow noauthentication: Enabled imsi authentication:Disabled
Enter the following command to display the IP address pool configuration:
show ip pool
The output from this command should look similar to the sample shown below. In this example, all IP pools were configured in the isp1 context.
context : isp1:
+-----Type: (P) - Public (R) - Private
| (S) - Static (E) - Resource
|
|+----State: (G) - Good (D) - Pending Delete (R)-Resizing
||
||++--Priority: 0..10 (Highest (0) .. Lowest (10))
||||
||||+-Busyout: (B) - Busyout configured
|||||
|||||
vvvvv Pool Name Start Address Mask/End Address Used Avail
----- --------- --------------- --------------- -------- --------
PG00 ipsec 12.12.12.0 255.255.255.0 0 254
PG00 pool1 10.10.0.0 255.255.0.0 0 65534
SG00 vpnpool 192.168.1.250 192.168.1.254 0 5
 
Total Pool Count: 5
*IMPORTANT: Many features can be configured on the system. There are show commands specifically for these features. Refer to the Command Line Interface Reference for more information.
Service Configuration
Verify that your service was created and configured properly by entering the following command:
show <service_type> <service_name>
The output is a concise listing of the service parameter settings similar to the sample displayed below. In this example, a P-GW service called pgw1 is configured.
Service name : pgw1
Service-Id : 1
Context : test1
Status : STARTED
Restart Counter : 8
EGTP Service : egtp1
LMA Service : Not defined
Session-Delete-Delay Timer : Enabled
Session-Delete-Delay timeout : 10000(msecs)
PLMN ID List : MCC: 100, MNC: 99
 
Newcall Policy : None
Context Configuration
Verify that your context was created and configured properly by entering the following command:
show context name <name>
The output shows the active context. Its ID is similar to the sample displayed below. In this example, a context named test1 is configured.
Context Name ContextID State
------------ --------- -----
test1 2 Active
System Configuration
Verify that your entire configuration file was created and configured properly by entering the following command:
show configuration
This command displays the entire configuration including the context and service configurations defined above.
Finding Configuration Errors
Identify errors in your configuration file by entering the following command:
show configuration errors
This command displays errors it finds within the configuration. For example, if you have created a service named “service1”, but entered it as “srv1” in another part of the configuration, the system displays this error.
You must refine this command to specify particular sections of the configuration. Add the section keyword and choose a section from the help menu:
show configuration errors section ggsn-service
or
show configuration errors section aaa-config
If the configuration contains no errors, an output similar to the following is displayed:
######################################################################################
# Displaying Global AAA-configuration errors
######################################################################################
Total 0 error(s) in this section !
Saving the Configuration
Save system configuration information to a file locally or to a remote node on the network. You can use this configuration file on any other systems that require the same configuration.
