Chapter 6 Configuring Cisco IOS Configuration Engine
Configuring Cisco IOS Agents
To disable the CNS Cisco IOS agent, use the
no cns config initial
{
ip-address | hostname
} global
configuration command.
This example shows how to configure an initial configuration on a remote switch when the switch
configuration is unknown (the CNS Zero Touch feature).
Switch(config)#
cns template connect template-dhcp
Switch(config-tmpl-conn)#
cli ip address dhcp
Switch(config-tmpl-conn)#
exit
Switch(config)#
cns template connect ip-route
Switch(config-tmpl-conn)#
cli ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ${next-hop}
Switch(config-tmpl-conn)#
exit
Switch(config)#
cns connect dhcp
Switch(config-cns-conn)#
discover interface gigabitethernet
Switch(config-cns-conn)#
template
template-dhcp
Switch(config-cns-conn)#
template
ip-route
Switch(config-cns-conn)#
exit
Switch(config)#
hostname RemoteSwitch
RemoteSwitch(config)#

Enable the Cisco IOS agent, and initiate an initial
configuration.
•
For {
hostname | ip-address
}, enter the hostname or the
IP address of the configuration server.
•
(Optional) For
port-number
, enter the port number of
the configuration server. The default port number is
80.
•
(Optional) Enable
event
for configuration success,
failure, or warning messages when the configuration is
finished.
•
(Optional) Enable
no-persist
to suppress the
automatic writing to NVRAM of the configuration
pulled as a result of entering the
cns config initial
global configuration command. If the
no-persist
keyword is not entered, using the
cns config initial
command causes the resultant configuration to be
automatically written to NVRAM.
•
(Optional) For
page
page
, enter the web page of the
initial configuration. The default is
/Config/config/asp.
•
(Optional) Enter
source
ip-address
to use for source IP
address.
•
(Optional) Enable
syntax-check
to check the syntax
when this parameter is entered.
