Setting System Parameters

If you are using ISDN, you can use a global setting to set the router to defaults 
appropriate for the territory where you operate. The command is:

set system territory

To aid in identifying the router you can name it, specify its location, and 
identify the person responsible for administering it. These settings are 
controlled by the commands:

set system name

set system location

set system contact

The system name is displayed as part of the command prompt, and all three of 
the above settings are displayed in the output of the command:

show system

You can set the router’s time and date, which are displayed in log messages, by 
using the command:

set time

For more information, see 

“System Identification” on page 4-3 of Chapter 4, 

Configuring and Monitoring the System

.

Saving Configurations Entered 
with the CLI

To view the router’s current dynamic configuration, enter the command:

show configuration dynamic

If the router restarts (boots), any changes to the dynamic configuration are lost 
unless you have saved them by entering the command:

create config=

filename

.cfg

The filename can be up to 28 characters long. The configuration file that you 
create with this command records passwords in encrypted form, not in 
cleartext. 

To set the router to execute this configuration file when it restarts, enter the 
command:

set config=

filename

.cfg
