Alcatel-Lucent 7450 - Displaying Configuration Contexts

CLI Usage
Basic System Configuration Guide 23
At the end of the prompt, there is either a pound sign (“#”) or a dollar sign (“$”). A “#” at the
end of the prompt indicates the context is an existing context. A “$” at the end of the prompt
indicates the context has been newly created. New contexts are newly created for logical
entities when the user first navigates into the context.
Since there can be a large number of sublevels in the CLI, the environment command
reduced-prompt no of nodes in prompt allows the user to control the number of levels
displayed in the prompt.
All special characters (#, $, etc.) must be enclosed within double quotes, otherwise it is seen
as a comment character and all characters on the command line following the # are ignored.
For example:
*A:ALA-1>config>router# interface "primary#1"
When changes are made to the configuration file a “*” appears in the prompt string (*A:ALA-
1) indicating that the changes have not been saved. When an admin save command is
executed the “*” disappears. This behavior is controlled in the saved-ind-prompt command
in the environment context.
Displaying Configuration Contexts
The info, info detail and objective commands display configuration for the current level. The
info command shows non-default configurations. The info detail command shows the entire
configuration for the current level, including defaults. The info [objective] command
provides an output objective that controls the configuration parameters to be displayed.
The following example shows the output that shows using the info command and the output
that shows using the info detail command.
*A:ALA-1>config>router# interface system
*A:ALA-1>config>router>if# info

*A:ALA-1>config>router>if#
