Note
Remember that the Active configuration contains both the Startup configuration
and any configuration changes that you’ve made active in the current
configuration session.

Commands with errors are annotated with an “

.”
•

cards, it is annotated with a “
P:
.” For example, if you enable STP on all ports on the RS 3000, but

stp enable et.*.*
would be displayed as follows:

P:
” annotation
in the above command line would disappear.
system show active-config
P: stp enable et.*.*
