Chapter 18 File Manager
NWA/WAC Series CLI Reference Guide
98
These files have the same syntax, which is also identical to the way you run CLI commands
manually. An example is shown below.
While configuration files and shell scripts have the same syntax, the NWA/WAC applies
configuration files differently than it runs shell scripts. This is explained below.
You have to run the example in Table 10 on page 98 as a shell script because the first command is
run in Privilege mode. If you remove the first command, you have to run the example as a
configuration file because the rest of the commands are executed in Configuration mode. (See
Section 1.5 on page 17 for more information about CLI modes.)
18.2.1 Comments in Configuration Files or Shell Scripts
In a configuration file or shell script, use “#” or “!” as the first character of a command line to have
the NWA/WAC treat the line as a comment.
Your configuration files or shell scripts can use “exit” or a command line consisting of a single “!” to
have the NWA/WAC exit sub command mode.
Note: “exit” or “!'” must follow sub commands if it is to make the NWA/WAC exit sub
command mode.
In the following example lines 1 and 2 are comments. Line 5 exits sub command mode.
18.2.2 Errors in Configuration Files or Shell Scripts
When you apply a configuration file or run a shell script, the NWA/WAC processes the file line-by-
line. The NWA/WAC checks the first line and applies the line if no errors are detected. Then it
