6.4.3 Displaying and checking configuration entries (show command)

<Structure of this section>

(1) Displaying and checking the startup configuration and running configuration

You can display and check the running configuration or startup configuration by using the show running-config or show startup-config operation command in administrator mode. The following figure shows an example of displaying a running configuration.

Figure 6-5: Example of displaying the running configuration
OFFICE01# show running-config ..1 #default configuration file for AX2630S-24T4XW ! hostname "OFFICE01" switch 1 provision 2630-24t4xw ! vlan 1 name "VLAN0001" ! vlan 100 state active ! vlan 200 state active ! interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 100 ! interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 200 ! OFFICE01#

Figure 6-5: Example of displaying the running configuration

OFFICE01# show running-config                 ..1
#default configuration file for AX2630S-24T4XW
!
hostname "OFFICE01"
switch 1 provision 2630-24t4xw
!
vlan 1
  name "VLAN0001"
!
vlan 100
  state active
!
vlan 200
  state active
!
interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
  switchport mode access
  switchport access vlan 100
!
interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2
  switchport mode access
  switchport access vlan 200
!
OFFICE01#

Display the running configuration.

(2) Displaying and checking the configuration

Using the show command in configuration mode, you can display and check configuration entries before or after they have been edited. An example of displaying the configuration is shown in Figure 6-6: Displaying all the contents of the configuration to Figure 6-9: Displaying the specified interface information in interface mode.

Figure 6-6: Displaying all the contents of a configuration
OFFICE01(config)# show ..1 #default configuration file for AX2630S-24T4XW ! hostname "OFFICE01" switch 1 provision 2630-24t4xw ! vlan 1 name "VLAN0001" ! vlan 100 state active ! vlan 200 state active ! interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 100 ! interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 200 ! OFFICE01(config)#

Figure 6-6: Displaying all the contents of a configuration

OFFICE01(config)# show                 ..1
#default configuration file for AX2630S-24T4XW
!
hostname "OFFICE01"
switch 1 provision 2630-24t4xw
!
vlan 1
  name "VLAN0001"
!
vlan 100
  state active
!
vlan 200
  state active
!
interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
  switchport mode access
  switchport access vlan 100
!
interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2
  switchport mode access
  switchport access vlan 200
!
OFFICE01(config)#

Display the entire running configuration when you omit all parameters.

Figure 6-7: Displaying all configured interface information
OFFICE01(config)# show interface gigabitethernet ..1 interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 100 ! interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 200 ! OFFICE01(config)#

Figure 6-7: Displaying all configured interface information

OFFICE01(config)# show interface gigabitethernet        ..1
interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
  switchport mode access
  switchport access vlan 100
!
interface gigabitethernet 1/0/2
  switchport mode access
  switchport access vlan 200
!
OFFICE01(config)#

Display all the configured interfaces in the running configuration.

Figure 6-8: Displaying specified interface information
OFFICE01(config)# show interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 ..1 interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 100 ! OFFICE01(config)#

Display interface 1/0/1 in the running configuration.

Figure 6-9: Displaying the specified interface information in interface mode
OFFICE01(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 OFFICE01(config-if)# show ..1 interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 100 ! OFFICE01(config-if)#

Display interface 1/0/1 in the running configuration.
