Apply Changes
Click Apply Changes to deliver newly imported signatures, signature edits, and
newly enabled or disabled signatures to the router. When the changes are applied,
the yellow Wait icon is removed from the ! column. These changes are saved to
your router flash memory in the file sdmips.sdf. This file is created automatically
the first time you click Apply Changes.
Note If you are attempting to import signatures, and these signatures are all identical to
deployed signatures, then the Apply Changes button is disabled.
Discard Changes
Click Discard Changes to discard accumulated changes.
Note If you are attempting to import signatures, and these signatures are all identical to
deployed signatures, then the Discard Changes button is disabled.
Edit Signature
Use the fields in Edit Signature dialog to edit the selected signature. The changes
that you make are stored in a delta file that is saved to router flash memory. The
elements of signatures are described in the following sections.
This help topic describes the Edit Signatures window displayed when the router
runs Cisco IOS 12.4(11)T and later releases.
