Netgear XCM8810 - 8800 SERIES 10-SLOT CHASSIS SWITCH ユーザーズマニュアル

Although the XCM8800 does not prohibit mixing ACL and routing 

type entries in a policy file, it is strongly recommended that you do 
not mix the entries, and you use separate policy files for ACL and 
routing policies.

When you create a policy file, name the file with the policy name that you will use when 
applying the policy, and use “.pol” as the filename extension. For example, the policy name 
“boundary” refers to the text file “boundary.pol”. 

Using the Edit Command

A VI-like editor is available on the switch to edit policies. To edit a policy file on the switch by 
launching the editor, use the following command:

edit policy

 

There are many commands available with the editor. For information about the editor 
commands, use any tutorial or documentation about VI. The following is only a short 
introduction to the editor.

Edit operates in one of two modes; command and input. When a file first opens, you are in 
the command mode. To write in the file, use the keyboard arrow keys to position your cursor 
within the file, then press one of the following keys to enter input mode:

i - To insert text ahead of the initial cursor position

a- To append text after the initial cursor position

To escape the input mode and return to the command mode, press the Escape key.

Several commands can be used from the command mode. The following commands are the 
most commonly used:

dd - To delete the current line

yy - To copy the current line

p - To paste the line copied

:w - To write (save) the file

:q - To quit the file if no changes were made

:q! - To forcefully quit the file without saving changes

:wq - To write and quit the file

Using a Separate Machine

You can also edit policies on a separate machine. Any common text editor can be used to 
create a policy file. The file is then transferred to the switch using TFTP and then applied. 

To transfer policy files to the switch, use the following command:
