/etc/ptp4l.conf: {}

nv show system config apply ignore <ignore-id>

<ignore-id>The ignored file.

Version History

Introduced in Cumulus Linux 5.0.0

Example

cumulus@switch:~$ nv show system config apply ignore /etc/frr/frr.conf

nv show system config auto-save

Shows if configuration auto save is on or off.

If auto save is off when you run the nv config apply command to apply a configuration setting, NVUE applies the pending configuration to become the applied configuration but does not update the startup configuration file (/etc/nvue.d/startup.yaml). To save the applied configuration to the startup configuration so that the changes persist after the reboot, you must run the nv config save command.

If auto save is on when you run the nv config apply command, NVUE saves the configuration to the startup configuration automatically when you run nv config apply so that you do not have to run the nv config save command.

  • In Cumulus Linux 5.9 and later, auto save is on by default.
  • In Cumulus Linux 5.8 and earlier, auto save is off by default.

Version History

Introduced in Cumulus Linux 5.4.0

Example

cumulus@switch:~$ nv show system config auto-save
enable: off
