Chapter 16 File Manager 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. Table 85 Configuration Files and Shell Scripts in the NWA/WAC Configuration Files (.conf) Shell Scripts (.zysh) • Resets to default configuration. • Goes into CLI Configuration mode. • Runs the commands in the configuration file. • Goes into CLI Privilege mode. • Runs the commands in the shell script. You have to run the aforementioned example 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. 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 7 exits sub command mode. ! this is from Joe # on 2010/12/05 wlan-ssid-profile default ssid Joe-AP qos wmm security default ! 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 continues with the next line. If the NWA/WAC 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 NWA/WAC ignores any errors in the configuration file or shell script and applies all of the valid commands. The NWA/WAC still generates a log for any errors. 16.2 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 NWA/WAC to your computer and upload configuration files from your computer to the NWA/WAC. NWA / WAC Series User's Guide 186
