Configuration Changes
You can make configuration changes while web operations proceed normally.
Configuration changes do not take effect until you complete the following steps:
Step 1
Issue the 
commit
 command at the command prompt.
Step 2
Give the 
commit
 command the input required.
Step 3
Receive confirmation of the 
commit
 procedure at the CLI.
Changes to configuration that have not been committed are recorded, but do not 
go into effect until you run the 
commit
 command. However, not all commands 
require the 
commit
 command to be run.
Exiting the CLI session, system shutdown, reboot, failure, or issuing the 
clear
 
command clears changes that have not yet been committed.
General Purpose CLI Commands
This section describes the some basic commands you might use in a typical CLI 
session, such as committing and clearing changes. For a full list of commands, see 
.
Committing Configuration Changes
The 
commit
 command allows you to change configuration settings while other 
operations proceed normally. Changes are not actually committed until you 
receive confirmation and a timestamp. Exiting the CLI session, system shutdown, 
reboot, failure, or issuing the 
clear
 command clears changes that have not yet 
been committed.
Entering comments after the commit command is optional.
