software-repository
Syntax software-repository repository-name [create]
no software-repository repository-name
Context config>system
Description This command creates or deletes an instance of a software repository. The instance is identified by a
repository name.
A software repository is used to obtain files to upgrade software on certain subsystems of the router
(for example, Ethernet satellites).
Up to three locations can be specified within a software repository for the router to access files in the
repository. The router will first attempt to access the file at the primary location. If the primary location
is not configured or the files are not found at the primary location, then the router will attempt to access
the files at the secondary location. If the secondary location is not configured or the files are not found
at the secondary location, then the router will attempt to access the files at the tertiary location. If the
tertiary location is not configured or the files are not found at the tertiary location, then the software
repository access will fail.
The no form of the command removes the software repository.
Parameters repository-name — A string of up to 64 characters that uniquely identifies the software repository.
create — Keyword required when the software-repository context is first created. Once the
context is created, it can be accessed without the create keyword.
