GarrettCom MNS-6K-SECURE 14.1.4 Switch User Manual


 
MAGNUM 6K SWITCHES, MNS-6K USER GUIDE
System portion of the file only. GarrettCom recommends editing the “script” file (see below)
Note 2 – File names cannot have special characters such as *#!@$^&* space and control characters.
Script files
Script file is a file containing a set of CLI commands which are used to configure the switch. CLI
commands are repeated in the file for clarity, providing guidance to the user editing the file as to
what commands can be used for modifying variables used by MNS-6K. The script file does not
have a check sum at the end and is used for configuring a large number of switches easily. As with
any configuration file that is uploaded, GarrettCom recommends that modifications of this file
and the commands should be verified by the User in a test environment prior to use in a "live"
production network.
The commands for user access can be encrypted when saving the script file. Please
note that when the script file is loaded back to the switch, please make sure the
encrypted password is replaced back in clear text. To encrypt and save the config
file, use the CLI command
Syntax set secrets <hide|show> - hides or encrypts the user access password. Default is show
The script file will look familiar as all the commands saved in the script file are described in this manual.
A sample of the script file is shown below.
