Errors in Configuration Files or Shell Scripts
When you apply a configuration file or run a shell script, the NXC processes the file line-by-line. The NXC
checks the first line and applies the line if no errors are detected. Then it continues with the next line. If
the NXC finds an error, it stops applying the configuration file or shell script and generates a log.
You can change the way a configuration file or shell script is applied. Include setenv stop-on-error
off in the configuration file or shell script. The NXC ignores any errors in the configuration file or shell
script and applies all of the valid commands. The NXC still generates a log for any errors.
31.2 Configuration File
Click Maintenance > File Manager > Configuration File to open this screen. Use the Configuration File
screen to store, run, and name configuration files. You can also download configuration files from the
NXC to your computer and upload configuration files from your computer to the NXC.
Once your NXC is configured and functioning properly, it is highly recommended that you back up your
configuration file before making further configuration changes. The backup configuration file will be
useful in case you need to return to your previous settings.
Configuration File Flow at Restart
• If there is not a startup-config.conf when you restart the NXC (whether through a management
interface or by physically turning the power off and back on), the NXC uses the system-default.conf
configuration file with the NXC’s default settings.
