Administrator Guide

To enable the VRF feature and cause all VRF-related commands to be available or viewable in the CLI
interface, use the following command. You must enable the VRF feature before you can configure its
related attributes.
Dell(conf)# feature vrf
Based on whether VRF feature is identified as supported in the Feature Configuration file, configuration
command feature vrf becomes available for usage. This command will be stored in running-configuration
and will precede all other VRF-related configurations.
NOTE: The MXL and Z9000 platforms currently do not support VRF. These platforms support only
the management and default VRFs, which are available by default. As a result, the feature vrf
command is not available for these platforms.
To display the state of Dell Networking OS features:
Dell#show feature
Example of show feature output
For a particular target where VRF is enabled, the show output is similar to the following:
Feature State
------------------------------
VRF enabled
View Command History
The command-history trace feature captures all commands entered by all users of the system with a time
stamp and writes these messages to a dedicated trace log buffer.
The system generates a trace message for each executed command. No password information is saved
to the file.
To view the command-history trace, use the show command-history command.
Example of the show command-history Command
Dell#show command-history
