STP on one of the secondary ports in the trunk group, the CLI rejects the commands to enter the interface
configuration level for the port and moves on to the next command in the file you are loading. If the next
command is a spanning-tree command whose syntax is valid at the global CONFIG level as well as the
interface configuration level, then the software applies the command globally. Here is an example:
The configuration file contains these commands:
interface ethernet 2
no spanning-tree
The CLI responds like this:
FESX424 Switch(config)# interface ethernet 2
Error - cannot configure secondary ports of a trunk
FESX424 Switch(config)# no spanning-tree
FESX424 Switch(config)#
•
If the file contains commands that must be entered in a specific order, the commands must appear in the file
in the required order. For example, if you want to use the file to replace an IP address on an interface, you
must first remove the old address using “no” in front of the
ip address
command, then add the new address.
Otherwise, the CLI displays an error message and does not implement the command. Here is an example:
The configuration file contains these commands:
interface ethernet 11
ip address 10.10.10.69/24
The running-config already has a command to add an address to port 11, so the CLI responds like this:
FESX424 Switch(config)# interface ethernet 11
FESX424 Switch(config-if-e1000-11)# ip add 10.10.10.69/24
Error: can only assign one primary ip address per subnet
FESX424 Switch(config-if-e1000-11)#
To successfully replace the address, enter commands into the file as follows:
interface ethernet 11
no ip address 20.20.20.69/24
ip address 10.10.10.69/24
This time, the CLI accepts the command, and no error message is displayed:
FESX424 Switch(config)# interface ethernet 11
FESX424 Switch(config-if-e1000-11)# no ip add 20.20.20.69/24
FESX424 Switch(config-if-e1000-111)# ip add 10.10.10.69/24
FESX424 Switch(config-if-e1000-11)
•
Always use the
end
command at the end of the file. The
end
command must appear on the last line of the
file, by itself.
Loading the Configuration Information into the Running-Config
To load the file from a TFTP server, use either of the following commands:
•
copy tftp running-config
<ip-addr> <filename>
•
ncopy tftp
<ip-addr> <filename>
running-config
Maximum File Sizes for Startup-Config File and Running-Config
Each Foundry device has a maximum allowable size for the running-config and the startup-config file. If you use
TFTP to load additional information into a device’s running-config or startup-config file, it is possible to exceed the
maximum allowable size. If this occurs, you will not be able to save the configuration changes.
The maximum size for the running-config and the startup-config file is 64K each.
