5.11 Configuration Scripting Commands
Configuration Scripting allows you to generate text-formatted script files representing the current configuration of a
system. You can upload these configuration script files to a PC or UNIX system and edit them. Then, you can
download the edited files to the system and apply the new configuration. You can apply configuration scripts to one
or more switches with no or minor modifications.
Use the show running-config command (see 4.4.9 “show running-config” on page 4 - 15) to capture the running
configuration into a script. Use the copy command (see 4.6.16 “copy” on page 4 - 29) to transfer the configuration
script to or from the switch.
You should use scripts on systems with default configuration; however, you are not prevented from applying scripts
on systems with non-default configurations.
Scripts must conform to the following rules:
• The file extension must be “.scr”.
• A maximum of ten scripts are allowed on the switch.
• The combined size of all script files on the switch shall not exceed 2048 KB.
• The maximum number of configuration file command lines is 2000.
You can type single-line annotations at the command prompt to use when you write test or configuration scripts to
improve script readability. The exclamation point (!) character flags the beginning of a comment. The comment flag
character can begin a word anywhere on the command line, and all input following this character is ignored. Any
command line that begins with the “!” character is recognized as a comment line and ignored by the parser.
The following lines show an example of a script:
! Script file for displaying management access
show telnet !Displays the information about remote connections
! Display information about direct connections
show serial
! End of the script file!

Hostname

Port The configured TACACS+ server port number.
TimeOut The timeout in seconds for establishing a TCP connection.
Priority The preference order in which TACACS+ servers are contacted. If a server connection fails,

Note: To specify a blank password for a user in the configuration script, you must specify it as
a space within quotes. For example, to change the password for user jane from a blank
password to
hello, the script entry is as follows:
users passwd jane
" "
hello
