Please log in for more thread options would like to know if there is an SNMP equivalent to these commands in order to automatically restore the config if something goes horribly wrong. Or will I have to resort to using Telnet as well? One other q - will these commands only work if the running config is altered or will they also work if the Startup config is altered? Any advice/suggestions much appreciated! Cheers, Steve | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options They are unrelated to changes, they will work even if nothing is altered. Issueing "reload in" when making running config changes give you a warm tummy feeling since if you screw something up and lock yourself out the router will reboot and load the (presumably working) startup config as the running config. Issueing "reload in" when making startup config changes is kinda pointless. The recomended sequence is to make your "reload in" protected running config changes first and only when you're sure its OK do a copy from running to startup. -- -- Rod -- rodd(at)polylogics(dot)com | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options Yes, you can reload the router using SNMP. You will need to configure
the following commands first - snmp-server community private RW snmp-server system-shutdown Then follow the instructions at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk362/technologies_q_and_a_item09186a00800c263d.shtml#qa4 Cisco da Gama http://ciscostudy.blogspot.com | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options Never mind my last response. I blanked on the fact that you were
asking about how to do a scheduled reload using SNMP and not a regular reload. Sorry. Cisco da Gama http://ciscostudy.blogspot.com | ||||||||||||||||||||||

If I recall correctly, there are two different MIBs for that functionality, depending upon model and IOS version. My recollection is that the current SNMP method is to first write a command number to one OID, and then write the time until that command into another OID. To cancel, you rewrite the time to 0. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
