If you want to use the examples in this manual, you can use
the load merge or the load merge relative command.
These commands cause the software to merge the incoming configuration
into the current candidate configuration. If the example configuration
contains the top level of the hierarchy (or multiple hierarchies),
the example is a full example. In this case,
use the load merge command.
If the example configuration does not start at the top level
of the hierarchy, the example is a snippet. In
this case, use the load merge relative command. These procedures
are described in the following sections.
Merging a Full Example
To merge a full example, follow these steps:
From the HTML or PDF version of the manual,
copy a configuration example into a text file, save the file with
a name, and copy the file to a directory on your routing platform.
For example, copy the following configuration to a file and
name the file ex-script.conf. Copy the ex-script.conf file to the /var/tmp directory on your routing platform.
system {
scripts {
commit {
file ex-script.xsl;
}
}
}
interfaces {
fxp0 {
disable;
unit 0 {
family inet {
address 10.0.0.1/24;
}
}
}
}
Merge the contents of the file into your
routing platform configuration by issuing the load merge configuration
mode command:
[edit]
user@host# load merge /var/tmp/ex-script.conf
load complete
Merging a Snippet
To merge a snippet, follow these steps:
From the HTML or PDF version of the manual,
copy a configuration snippet into a text file, save the file with
a name, and copy the file to a directory on your routing platform.
For example, copy the following snippet to a file and name the
file ex-script-snippet.conf. Copy the ex-script-snippet.conf file to the /var/tmp directory on your routing platform.
commit {
file ex-script-snippet.xsl; }
Move to the hierarchy level that is relevant
for this snippet by issuing the following configuration mode command:
[edit]
user@host# edit system scripts
[edit system scripts]
Merge the contents of the file into your
routing platform configuration by issuing the load merge relative configuration mode command:
