Editing and Committing the Configuration Text

To edit the entire configuration in text format:

Caution: We recommend that you use this method to edit and commit the configuration only if you have experience editing configurations through the CLI.

1. Select Configuration>View and Edit>Edit Configuration Text. The main pane displays the configuration in a text editor (see Figure 4).

   For more information about the format of an ASCII configuration file, see Viewing the Configuration Text.

2. Navigate to the hierarchy level you want to edit.

   You can edit the candidate configuration using standard text editor operations—insert lines (by using the Enter key), delete lines, and modify, copy, and paste text.

3. Click OK to load and commit the configuration.

   The Services Router checks the configuration for the correct syntax before committing it.
