Running Scripts
of Administration
Console Tasks
You can use scripts to expedite and automate Administration Console tasks.
Any command you enter in the Administration Console can become part of
a script. You can even script your entire system setup so that you can repeat
the exact setup on another Switch 2200.
You create scripts in an ASCII-based line editor, such as EMACS or vi. To run
them from the Administration Console, you must access the directory where
your scripts are stored. When writing scripts, you can use the number
symbol (#) to identify comments in the script.
To run a script:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
script
You are prompted for information about where you have stored the script
you want to run: host IP address, file path name, user name, and password.
Press [Return] at any prompt to use the value in brackets.
2 Enter the host IP address of the system where the script resides.
3 Enter the path name.
4 Enter your user name.
5 Enter your password.
6 Enter the name of the script.
