[j-nsp] How to retain annotations in | display set

[Alain Briant]

Hi Dong bei

I don't think it's possible to do what you want since the display set is 
showing "set" commands and the
annotations are "annotate" commands.

The only way , so , to copy annotations is to copy/paste the regular 
format of config with a "load merge" or a "load override" command.
This is the normal way it has to be done (ie):

lab at toto# load merge terminal
[Type ^D at a new line to end input]
/* Where the ship resides...Where the ship resides...Where the ship 
resides...Where the ship resides...Where the ship resides...Where the 
ship resides...Where the ship resides...Where the ship resides...Where 
the ship resides...Where the ship resides...Where the ship 
resides...Where the ship resides... */
snmp {
    community public;
}
load complete

[edit]
lab at toto#


Furthermore, if you want to add several lines to your comment you can do 
it the same way via copy/paste and try for example to "load merge 
terminal" this

lab at toto# load merge terminal   
[Type ^D at a new line to end input]
/* Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides...
Where the ship resides... */
snmp {
    community public;
}
load complete




Hope this helps you



Regards
Alain
