write

Use the write command to upload the current configuration to a host or display it on the terminal.

write {host file | network | terminal}

Syntax Description

host	IP address or IP alias of the host.
file	Name of the configuration file.
network	Keyword that specifies interactive prompting for the IP address or IP alias of the host and the filename to upload.
terminal	Keyword used to display the configuration file on the terminal.

Default

This command has no default setting.

Command Type

Switch command.

Command Mode

Privileged.

Usage Guidelines

The write terminal command is exactly the same as the show config command. The write host file command is a shorthand version of the write network command.

The write terminal command is equivalent to the ATM command write terminal.

You cannot use the write network command to upload software to the ATM module.

With the write network command, the file must already exist on the host (use the UNIX touch filename command to create it).

Examples

This sample session assumes that module 1 is a 2-port supervisor module, module 2 is a 12-port 10/100BaseT switched Ethernet module, modules 3 and 5 are empty, and module 4 is an FDDI module. Details of the ATM configuration must be accessed through the special module mode.

This example shows how to upload the system5.cfg file to the mercury host using the write network command:

Console> (enable) write network
IP address or name of host? mercury
Name of configuration file to write? system5.cfg
Upload configuration to system5.cfg on mercury (y/n) [y]? y
/
Done.  Finished Network Upload.  (9003 bytes)
Console> (enable)
  

This example shows how to upload the system5.cfg file to the mercury host using the write host file command as a shorthand method:

Console> (enable) write mercury system5.cfg
Upload configuration to system5.cfg on mercury (y/n) [y]? y
/
Done.  Finished Network Upload.  (9003 bytes)
Console> (enable)
  

This example shows how to use the write terminal command to display the configuration file on the terminal:

Console> (enable) write terminal
