configShow
Displays system configuration settings.
Synopsis configshow [“pattern”] | -pattern [“pattern”]
configshow -local|-USB|-U [file] [-pattern "pattern"]
Description Use this command to display some system configuration settings in addition to the parameters set
by the configure command.
NOTE
Not all values displayed are applicable to all system models and configurations.
Operands When this command is executed without operands, all system configuration settings are displayed.
The following operands are optional:
“pattern” | -pattern [“pattern”]
Specify a text string in quotation marks that limits the output of the command
to only those entries that contain the pattern. Use of wildcards and other
common regular expression operators is not supported. Some configuration
settings will not display when filtered. If in doubt, use the command without
operands.
-local [file] Displays the entire contents of a configuration file that was previously created
by configUpload and stored on the chassis. The output can be optionally
filtered by -pattern “pattern”. If file is omitted, the command will prompt the
user to specify a file name. The output format when this option is included
exactly matches that of configUpload and contains a superset of the
information provided by this command when the option is not specified.
-USB | -U [file] Displays the entire contents of a configuration file that was previously created
by configUpload and stored on an attached USB device. The output can be
optionally filtered by -pattern “pattern”. If file is omitted, the command will
prompt the user to specify a file name. The output format when this option is
included exactly matches that of configUpload and contains a superset of the
information provided by this command when the option is not specified.
