Consolidate IOS Commands

To copy IOS commands to an IOS device CLI that is generated by multiple events, follow these steps:

Procedure

1. Log in as provider, reseller, or customer administrator.

2. Set the hierarchy path to the customer or site for which you want to consolidate IOS commands.

3. Choose Device Management > IOS > Consolidate Commands.

4. Click Add.

5. On the Consolidate Commands screen, complete at minimum, the mandatory Consolidate Commands Fields.

6. Click the required command templates listed in the Available list, and click Select to move them to the Selected list.

   Click Remove to unselect a command template.

   Note:

   You can change the order of the command templates by clicking Move Up and Move Down. However, the consolidated commands are generated in chronological order regardless of the order of the selected command templates.

7. Click Save.

   The new command consolidation instance appears in the list.

8. Click the command consolidation instance you created.

   In the Command Template field, all the commands from the command templates you selected appear in one window. Comments are used to separate and identify the source command templates. You can edit the consolidated commands.

   Any modifications to the Command consolidation, displays the entire list of commands in a single instance. The commands present earlier to the modification cannot be viewed separately as the commands from the earlier events are treated as a single instance.

What to Do Next

After you have consolidated the IOS commands you want, copy them from the Commands Template field to the IOS device CLI.
