Entering Configuration Mode
If many users enter configuration mode at the same time, everyone can make
configuration changes and commit all changes. If one user enters configuration
mode when another user is also in configuration mode, a message indicates who
the user is and what portion of the configuration that user is viewing or editing. To
enter configuration mode, use the following CLI command:
user@host> configure
Entering configuration mode
Current configuration users:
root terminal p3 (pid 1088) on since 1999-05-13 01:03:27 EDT
[edit interfaces so-3/0/0 unit 0 family inet]
The configuration has been changed but not committed
! If, when you enter configuration mode, the configuration contains changes that
have not been committed, a message appears:
user@host> configure
Entering configuration mode
The configuration has been changed but not committed
! If, while in configuration mode, you try to make a change while the
configuration is locked by another user, a message indicates that the
configuration database is locked, who the user is, and what portion of the
configuration the user is viewing or editing:
[edit]
user@host# set system host-name ipswitch
error: configuration database locked by:
user2 terminal d0 (pid 1828) on since 19:47:58 EDT, idle 00:02:11
exclusive [edit protocols]
! If you enter configuration mode with the configure exclusive command, you
lock the candidate configuration for as long as you remain in configuration
mode, allowing you to make changes without interference from other users. If
another user is also in configuration mode and has the configuration locked, a
message indicates who the user is and what portion of the configuration the
user is viewing or editing:
user@host> configure exclusive
Entering configuration mode
Users currently editing the configuration:
root terminal p3 (pid 1088) on since 2000-10-30 19:47:58 EDT, idle
