Hi.
If you have two configs on CF3 (or any other flash), you can just point your BOF primary-config to the config file you want to use, save bof and reboot.

Not sure if this is what you are asking for tho...

[mivens]

...or depending on what you're trying to achieve:

Code: Select all

candidate edit
candidate load cf3:/config.cfg overwrite
candidate commit

Many thanks Stoffen & Mivens for support .. I will check this's commands.

Alternatively maybe you can use "exec" and execute config.cfg.x file with exec command,
when you do admin save, the system automatically will save existing config.cfg file with name config.cfg.1, config.cfg.1 to config.cfg.2 and so on until there area 5 files config.cfg.x, AFAIK.

then you can use "exec cf3:/config.cfg.x" --> x is depend which config.cfg file that you want to apply again.

thanks gargoyle ...

Exp: I am currently using "config.cfg".... Can I execute another file "config.cfg.10".. without reboot ?

You need to be aware of what's happening.

The contents of the file are not replacing the existing config when you do an "exec", it's a set of commands executed from a file that you are adding to the existing configuration. Going back to your original question, in Cisco IOS "copy startup-config running-config" doesn't replace the config either.

To replace the configuration, Stoffen's suggestion of pointing the BOF to a different config file (or editing / uploading a new version of the existing config file if you want to keep the same name) then rebooting is probably the best way.

I'm sorry for the misunderstanding on our part ... because English is not good for me.
My question has nothing to do with the "exec" Command. ...... I wanted to help you solve the problem only.

The problem is that ... the Router "7750-c12" I work on can not be separated from service ... even if the time is very short.

I want to change some of the "System-Security-Configuration" under the "User-Config" in config file ... Because MY Router being out of control By NFM-P Server.

I've changed the settings I could not apply to current config without Reboot.

I need some time to do that ... I'm working on new Nokia equipment ... and for the information without training
 
All this experience you have gained with the help of friends and colleagues at work.

I am an engineer for a network which is about 200 router.......

Thanks for the help in advance.

Maybe if you explain a bit more what you're trying to do and the error you get when you try?

For example, perhaps you need to add a temporary new local user, login as that then make your changes to the old user.

These are the steps ............ After editing the "R1.cfg" file. I need to apply without Reboot...... Is there a way for it or not?
