+Executing pre-hooks/post-hooks Scripts
+--------------------------------------
+
+Vyos has the ability to run custom scripts before and after each commit
+
+The default directories where your custom Scripts should be located are:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ /config/scripts/commit/pre-hooks.d - Directory with scripts that run before
+ each commit.
+
+ /config/scripts/commit/post-hooks.d - Directory with scripts that run after
+ each commit.
+
+Scripts are run in alphabetical order. Their names must consist entirely of
+ASCII upper- and lower-case letters,ASCII digits, ASCII underscores, and
+ASCII minus-hyphens.No other characters are allowed.
+
+.. note:: Custom scripts are not executed with root privileges (Use sudo inside if this is necessary).
+
+A simple example is shown below, where the ops command executed in
+the post-hook script is "show interfaces".
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ vyos@vyos# set interfaces ethernet eth1 address 192.0.2.3/24
+ vyos@vyos# commit
+ Codes: S - State, L - Link, u - Up, D - Down, A - Admin Down
+ Interface IP Address S/L Description
+ --------- ---------- --- -----------
+ eth0 198.51.100.10/24 u/u
+ eth1 192.0.2.3/24 u/u
+ eth2 - u/u
+ eth3 - u/u
+ lo 203.0.113.5/24 u/u
