execute filename
View
System view
Default Level
2: System level
Parameters
filename: Name of a batch file with a .bat extension.
Description
Use the execute command to execute the specified batch file.
Batch files are command line files. Executing a batch file is to execute a set of command lines in the file.
l You should not include invisible characters in a batch file. If an invisible character is found during the execution, the batch process will abort and the commands that have been executed cannot be cancelled.
l Not every command in a batch file is sure to be executed. For example, if a certain command is not correctly configured, the system omits this command and goes to the next one.
l The configuration generated after a batch file is executed will not be backed up to the standby main board automatically.
l Each configuration command in a batch file must be a standard configuration command, meaning that the valid configuration information can be displayed with the display current-configuration command after this command is configured successfully; otherwise, this command may not be executed correctly.
Examples
# Execute the batch file test.bat in the root directory.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] execute test.bat

reset recycle-bin [ /force ]
View
User view
Default Level
3: Manage level
Parameters
/force: Deletes all files in the recycle bin, including files that cannot be deleted by the command without the /force keyword.
Description
Use the reset recycle-bin command to permanently delete the files in the recycle bin in the current directory.
If a file is corrupted, you may not be able to delete the file using the reset recycle-bin command. In this case, you can use the reset recycle-bin /force command, which can delete all the files in the recycle bin forcibly.
Unlike this command, the delete file-url command only moves a file to the recycle bin. To delete the file in the recycle bin, you need to execute the reset recycle-bin command in the original directory of the file.
Examples
# There are three files flash:/a.cfg, flash:/b.cfg, and flash:/test/c.cfg in the recycle bin. Permanently delete file flash:/a.cfg and flash:/b.cfg.
l Display all the files in the recycle bin in directory flash:.

by-linenum: Identifies each line of displayed information with a line number.
Description
Use the display saved-configuration command to display the contents of the configuration file saved for the next startup of the device.
During device management and maintenance, you can use this command to check whether important configurations are saved to the configuration file to be used for the next startup of the device.
l For a distributed device, this command displays the contents of the configuration file saved on the AMB for the next system startup.
l For a device supporting main and backup configuration files, this command displays the main configuration file to be used for the next system startup.
l For a device not supporting main and backup configuration files, this command displays the configuration file to be used for the next system startup.
If the system is not specified with a configuration file for the next startup or the specified configuration file does not exist, no information will be displayed when you execute the display saved-configuration command.
Related commands: save, reset saved-configuration; display current-configuration in Basic System Configuration Commands in the System Volume.

Default Level
1: Monitor level
Parameters
None
Description
Use the display startup command to display the configuration file used at the current system startup and the configuration file(s) to be used at the next system startup, and also the enabled/disabled status of the Boot ROM access control function if the function is supported on the device.
Note that, for a distributed device:
l The SMB is started and runs based on the current configurations of the AMB; therefore the current startup configuration files displayed on the AMB and SMB are always the same.
l After a switchover between the AMB and SMB, the new AMB does not restart using the configuration file but runs with the current configuration instead. Therefore, when you execute the display startup command, the startup configuration file used for the current startup of the new AMB is displayed as NULL and that of the new SMB is also NULL to keep consistent with the new AMB.
Related commands: startup saved-configuration.
Examples
# Display the configuration file used at the current system startup and the one to be used at the next system startup.
<Sysname> display startup
Current startup saved-configuration file: flash:/config.cfg
Next main startup saved-configuration file: flash:/config.cfg
Next backup startup saved-configuration file: NULL

Default Level
2: System level
Parameters
backup: Deletes the backup startup configuration file. Support for this keyword depends on the device model.
main: Deletes the main startup configuration file. Support for this keyword depends on the device model.
Description
Use the reset saved-configuration command to delete the startup configuration file saved on the storage medium of the device.
Note that:
l This command will permanently delete the configuration file from the device. Use it with caution. On a device that has the main and backup startup configuration files, you can choose to delete either the main or backup startup configuration file. However, in the case that the main and backup startup configuration files are the same, if you perform the delete operation for once, the system will not delete the configuration file but only set the corresponding startup configuration file (main or backup, according to which one you specified in the command) to NULL.
l For a device that supports the main and backup keywords, the execution of the reset saved-configuration command and that of the reset saved-configuration main command have the same effect, that is, they will delete the main startup configuration file.
Related commands: save, display saved-configuration.
Examples
# Delete the backup startup configuration file from the storage medium of the device.
<Sysname> reset saved-configuration backup

Parameters
cfgfile: Configuration file name.
backup: Sets the configuration file as the backup startup configuration file that will be used at the next startup of the device.
main: Sets the configuration file as the main startup configuration file that will be used at the next startup of the device.
Description
Use the startup saved-configuration command to specify a startup configuration file (the configuration file to be used at the next system startup).
Use the undo startup saved-configuration command to configure the system to start up with the null configuration, that is, the factory configuration.
The specified file must be ended with a .cfg extension and saved in the root directory of the storage device (For a storage device that has been partitioned, the file must be saved on the first partition).
When a device that supports main/backup keyword:
l The startup saved-configuration and startup saved-configuration main commands have the same effect: Both of them are used to specify the main startup configuration file.
l The main and backup startup configuration files can be specified as the same file. However, it is recommended you use different files, or, save the same configuration as two files using different file names, one specified as the main startup configuration file, and the other specified as the backup.
l If you execute the undo startup saved-configuration command, the system will set the main and backup startup configuration file as NULL, but will not delete the two configuration files.

This configuration only filters the FTP connections to be established, and has no effect on the established FTP connections and operations. If you execute the command for multiple times, the last specified ACL takes effect.
Examples
# Associate the FTP service with ACL 2001 to allow only the client 1.1.1.1 to access the device through FTP.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] acl number 2001
[Sysname-acl-basic-2001] rule 0 permit source 1.1.1.1 0
[Sysname-acl-basic-2001] rule 1 deny source any

Parameters
minute: Idle-timeout timer in minutes, in the range 1 to 35791.
Description
Use the ftp timeout command to set the idle-timeout timer.
Use the undo ftp timeout command to restore the default.
By default, the FTP idle time is 30 minutes.
After you log in to an FTP server, if the connection is disrupted and the FTP server is not notified, the system will maintain the connection, which will cause the occupation of the system resources and affect the login of other FTP users. To address this problem, you can set an idle-timeout timer so that the FTP server can disconnect from the user if no information is received or/and transmitted before the timer expires.
Examples
# Set the idle-timeout timer to 36 minutes.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ftp timeout 36

Description
Use the ftp client source command to configure the source address of the transmitted FTP packets from the FTP client.
Use the undo ftp client source command to restore the default.
By default, a device uses the IP address of the interface determined by the matched route as the source IP address to communicate with an FTP server.
Note that:
l The source address can be specified as the source interface and the source IP address. If you use the ftp client source command to specify the source interface and then the source IP address, the newly specified source IP address overwrites the configured source interface and vice versa.
l If the source address is specified with the ftp client source command and then with the ftp command, the source address specified with the latter one is used to communicate with the FTP server.
l The source address specified with the ftp client source command is valid for all FTP connections and the source address specified with the ftp command is valid only for the current FTP connection.
Related commands: display ftp client configuration.

Examples
# In IPv4 networking environment, allow the device to access the TFTP server with the IP address of 1.1.1.1 only.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] acl number 2000
[Sysname-acl-basic-2000] rule permit source 1.1.1.1 0
[Sysname-acl-basic-2000] quit
[Sysname] tftp-server acl 2000

3: Manage level
Parameters
server-address: IP address or host name of a TFTP server.
get: Downloads a file in normal mode.
put: Uploads a file.
sget: Downloads a file in secure mode.
source-filename: Source file name.
destination-filename: Destination file name.
source: Configures parameters for source address binding.
l interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies the source interface by its type and number. The primary IP address configured on the source interface is the source IP address of the packets sent by TFTP. If no primary IP address is configured on the source interface, the transmission fails.
l ip source-ip-address: Specifies the source IP address for the current TFTP client to transmit packets. This source address must be an IP address that has been configured on the device.
Description
Use the tftp command to upload files from the local device to a TFTP server or download files from the TFTP server to the local device.
l If no destination file name is specified, the saved file uses the source file name.
l The priority of the source address specified with this command is higher than that specified with the tftp client source command. If you use the tftp client source command to specify the source address first and then with the tftp command, the latter one is adopted.
This command applies to IPv4 networks.
Related commands: tftp client source.
Examples
# Download the config.cfg file from the TFTP server with the IP address of 192.168.0.98 and save it as config.bak. Specify the source IP address to be 192.168.0.92.
<Sysname> tftp 192.168.0.98 get config.cfg config.bak source ip 192.168.0.92

Default Level
2: System level
Parameters
interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies the source interface by its type and number. The primary IP address configured on the source interface is the source IP address of the packets sent by TFTP. If no primary IP address is configured on the source interface, the transmission fails.
ip source-ip-address: The source IP address of TFTP connections. It must be an IP address that has been configured on the device.
Description
Use the tftp client source command to configure the source address of the TFTP packets from the TFTP client.
Use the undo telnet client source command to restore the default.
By default, a device uses the IP address of the interface determined by the matched route as the source IP address to communicate with a TFTP server.
Note that:
l The source address can be specified as the source interface and the source IP; if you use the tftp client source command to specify the source interface and then the source IP, the newly specified source IP overwrites the configured source interface and vice versa.
l If the source address is specified with the tftp client source command and then with the tftp command, the source address specified with the latter one is used to communicate with the TFTP server.
l The source address specified with the tftp client source command is valid for all tftp connections and the source address specified with the tftp command is valid for the current tftp command.
Related commands: display tftp client configuration.
Examples
# Specify the source IP address of the TFTP client as 2.2.2.2.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] tftp client source ip 2.2.2.2
# Specify the source interface of the TFTP client as Vlan-interface 1.
