User Profiles Overview
The CSS contains a default-profile file that resides in the scripts directory on the
CSS disk (hard disk or Flash disk). This file contains settings that are
user-specific; that is, they apply uniquely to each user when that user logs in.
You can customize the following settings for each user:
• CLI prompt
• Expert mode
• History buffer
• Terminal parameters
• Login banner
Though the settings are user-specific, each default setting applies to all users until
the user saves the default-profile file to a username-profile (where username is the
current login username). You can continue using the default-profile file to ensure
all users logging in to a CSS use the same settings. See the “Configuring a Login
Banner” section for information on saving the default-profile file.
If you change a user setting and want to save this setting in the scripts directory
of the current ADI, use the copy profile command. If you do not save this setting,
the CSS stores the setting temporarily in a running profile. If you attempt to log
out of the CSS without saving profile changes, the CSS prompts you that profile
changes have been made and allows you to save or discard the changes.
You can also use the save_profile alias command to save your user-profiles
settings to the scripts directory and then archive them in the CSS archive
directory.
When you upgrade the ADI, the CSS does not contain all user profiles from the
current ADI directory. If you wish to save user profiles permanently, use the
archive script command. This command saves a user-profile file from the scripts
directory to the archive directory. The archive directory is not overwritten during
a software upgrade. Then you can restore them to the scripts directory with the
restore command.
To access the CSS disk, FTP to the CSS. Use the appropriate commands to access
the scripts directory and list the contents of the default-profile file. When logged
into the CSS, use the show profile command to display either the default-profile
file or your username-profile file.
