Every such family has a specific -meaning to allow the user to guess how the command is going to behave — -in particular, whether it will be disruptive to the system or not. - -Note that this convention was not always followed with perfect -consistency and some commands may still be in wrong families, so you -should always check the command help and documentation if you are not -sure what exactly it does. - -#### clear - -"Clear" commands are completely non-disruptive to any system operations. -Generally, they can be used freely without hesitation. - -Most often their purpose is to remove or reset various debug and -diagnostic information such as system logs and packet counters. - -Examples: - -- `clear console` — clears the screen. -- `clear interfaces ethernet eth0 counters` — zeroes packet counters - on `eth0`. -- `clear log` — deletes all system log entries. - -#### reset - -"Reset" commands can be locally-disruptive. They may, for example, -terminate a single user session or a session with a dynamic routing -protocol peer. - -They should be used with caution since they may have a significant -impact on a particular users in the network. - -- `reset pppoe-server username jsmith` — terminate all PPPoE sessions - from user `jsmith`. -- `reset bgp 192.0.2.54` — terminates the BGP session with neighbor - 192.0.2.54. -- `reset vpn ipsec site-to-site peer vpn.example.com` — terminates - IPsec tunnels to `vpn.example.com`. -- `reset session tty1` — terminates the TTY user session `tty1` - -#### restart - -"Restart" operations may disrupt an entire subsystem. Most often they -initiate a restart of a server process, which causes it to be -unavailable for a brief period and resets all the process state. - -They should be used with extreme caution. - -- `restart dhcp server` — restarts the IPv4 DHCP server process (DHCP - requests are not served while it is restarting). -- `restart ipsec` — restarts the IPsec process (which forces all - sessions and all IPsec process state to reset). - -#### force - -"Force" commands force the system to perform an action that it might -perform by itself at a later point. - -Examples: - -- `force arp request interface eth1 address 10.3.0.2` — send a - gratuitious ARP request. -- `force root-partition-auto-resize` — grow the root filesystem to - the size of the system partition (this is also done on startup, but - this command can do it without a reboot). - -#### execute - -"Execute" commands are for executing various diagnostic and auxilliary -actions that the system would never perform by itself. - -Examples: - -- `execute wake-on-lan interface host ` — send a - Wake-On-LAN packet to a host. - -#### show - -"Show" commands display various system information. They may -occasionally use a pager for long outputs, that you can quit by pressing -the Q button. Their output is always finite, however. - -Examples: - -- `show system login` — displays current system users. -- `show ip route` — displays the IPv4 routing table. - -#### monitor - -"Monitor" commands initiate various monitoring operations that may -output information continuously, until terminated with `Ctrl-C` or -disabled. - -Examples: - -- `monitor log` — continuously outputs latest system logs. - -## Configuration Mode - -To enter configuration mode use the `configure` command: - -``` none -vyos@vyos:~$ configure -[edit] -vyos@vyos:~# -``` - -
- -
- -Note - -
- -Prompt changes from `$` to `#`. To exit configuration mode, -type `exit`. - -
- -``` none -vyos@vyos:~# exit -exit -vyos@vyos:~$ -``` - -See the configuration section of this document for more information on -configuration mode. - -# Configuration Overview - -VyOS makes use of a unified configuration file for the entire system's -configuration: `/config/config.boot`. This allows easy template -creation, backup, and replication of system configuration. A system can -thus also be easily cloned by simply copying the required configuration -files. - -## Terminology - -A VyOS system has three major types of configurations: - -- **Active** or **running configuration** is the system configuration - that is loaded and currently active (used by VyOS). Any change in - the configuration will have to be committed to belong to the - active/running configuration. -- **Working configuration** is the one that is currently being modified - in configuration mode. Changes made to the working configuration do - not go into effect until the changes are committed with the - `commit` command. At which time the working configuration will - become the active or running configuration. -- **Saved configuration** is the one saved to a file using the - `save` command. It allows you to keep safe a configuration for - future uses. There can be multiple configuration files. The default or - "boot" configuration is saved and loaded from the file - `/config/config.boot`. - -##### Seeing and navigating the configuration - -
- -show configuration - -View the current active configuration, also known as the running -configuration, from the operational mode. - -``` none -vyos@vyos:~$ show configuration -interfaces { - ethernet eth0 { - address dhcp - hw-id 00:53:00:00:aa:01 - } - loopback lo { - } -} -service { - ssh { - port 22 - } -} -system { - config-management { - commit-revisions 20 - } - console { - device ttyS0 { - speed 9600 - } - } - login { - user vyos { - authentication { - encrypted-password **************** - } - level admin - } - } - ntp { - server 0.pool.ntp.org { - } - server 1.pool.ntp.org { - } - server 2.pool.ntp.org { - } - } - syslog { - global { - facility all { - level notice - } - facility protocols { - level debug - } - } - } -} -``` - -
- -By default, the configuration is displayed in a hierarchy like the above -example, this is only one of the possible ways to display the -configuration. When the configuration is generated and the device is -configured, changes are added through a collection of `set` and -`delete` commands. - -
- -show configuration commands - -Get a collection of all the set commands required which led to the -running configuration. - -``` none -vyos@vyos:~$ show configuration commands -set interfaces ethernet eth0 address 'dhcp' -set interfaces ethernet eth0 hw-id '00:53:dd:44:3b:0f' -set interfaces loopback 'lo' -set service ssh port '22' -set system config-management commit-revisions '20' -set system console device ttyS0 speed '9600' -set system login user vyos authentication encrypted-password '$6$Vt68...QzF0' -set system login user vyos level 'admin' -set system ntp server '0.pool.ntp.org' -set system ntp server '1.pool.ntp.org' -set system ntp server '2.pool.ntp.org' -set system syslog global facility all level 'notice' -set system syslog global facility protocols level 'debug' -``` - -
- -Both these `show` commands should be executed when in operational -mode, they do not work directly in configuration mode. There is a -special way on how to :ref:run_opmode_from_config_mode. - -
- -
- -Hint - -
- -Use the `show configuration commands | strip-private` -command when you want to hide private data. You may want to do so if -you want to share your configuration on the [forum](https://forum.vyos.io). - -

- -###### The config mode - -When entering the configuration mode you are navigating inside a tree -structure, to enter configuration mode enter the command -`configure` when in operational mode. - -``` none -vyos@vyos$ configure -[edit] -vyos@vyos# -``` - -
- -
- -Note - -
- -When going into configuration mode, prompt changes from -`$` to `#`. - -
- -All commands executed here are relative to the configuration level you -have entered. You can do everything from the top level, but commands -will be quite lengthy when manually typing them. - -The current hierarchy level can be changed by the `edit` -command. - -``` none -[edit] -vyos@vyos# edit interfaces ethernet eth0 - -[edit interfaces ethernet eth0] -vyos@vyos# -``` - -You are now in a sublevel relative to `interfaces ethernet eth0`, all -commands executed from this point on are relative to this sublevel. Use -either the `top` or `exit` command to go back to the top -of the hierarchy. You can also use the `up` command to move only -one level up at a time. - -
- -show - -
- -The `show` command within configuration mode will show the -working configuration indicating line changes with `+` for additions, -`>` for replacements and `-` for deletions. - -**Example:** - -``` none -vyos@vyos:~$ configure -[edit] -vyos@vyos# show interfaces - ethernet eth0 { - description MY_OLD_DESCRIPTION - disable - hw-id 00:53:dd:44:3b:03 - } - loopback lo { - } -[edit] -vyos@vyos# set interfaces ethernet eth0 address dhcp -[edit] -vyos@vyos# set interfaces ethernet eth0 description MY_NEW_DESCRIPTION -[edit] -vyos@vyos# delete interfaces ethernet eth0 disable -[edit] -vyos@vyos# show interfaces - ethernet eth0 { -+ address dhcp -> description MY_NEW_DESCRIPTION -- disable - hw-id 00:53:dd:44:3b:03 - } - loopback lo { - } -``` - -It is also possible to display all `set` commands within configuration -mode using `show | commands` - -``` none -vyos@vyos# show interfaces ethernet eth0 | commands -set address dhcp -set hw-id 00:53:ad:44:3b:03 -``` - -These commands are also relative to the level you are inside and only -relevant configuration blocks will be displayed when entering a -sub-level. - -``` none -[edit interfaces ethernet eth0] -vyos@vyos# show - address dhcp - hw-id 00:53:ad:44:3b:03 -``` - -Exiting from the configuration mode is done via the `exit` -command from the top level, executing `exit` from within a -sub-level takes you back to the top level. - -``` none -[edit interfaces ethernet eth0] -vyos@vyos# exit -[edit] -vyos@vyos# exit -Warning: configuration changes have not been saved. -``` - -##### Editing the configuration - -The configuration can be edited by the use of `set` and -`delete` commands from within configuration mode. - -
- -set - -Use this command to set the value of a parameter or to create a new -element. - -
- -Configuration commands are flattened from the tree into 'one-liner' -commands shown in `show configuration commands` from operation -mode. Commands are relative to the level where they are executed and all -redundant information from the current level is removed from the command -entered. - -``` none -[edit] -vyos@vyos# set interface ethernet eth0 address 192.0.2.100/24 -``` - -``` none -[edit interfaces ethernet eth0] -vyos@vyos# set address 203.0.113.6/24 -``` - -These two commands above are essentially the same, just executed from -different levels in the hierarchy. - -
- -delete - -To delete a configuration entry use the `delete` command, -this also deletes all sub-levels under the current level you've -specified in the `delete` command. Deleting an entry will -also result in the element reverting back to its default value if one -exists. - -``` none -[edit interfaces ethernet eth0] -vyos@vyos# delete address 192.0.2.100/24 -``` - -
- -
- -commit - -Any change you do on the configuration, will not take effect until -committed using the `commit` command in configuration mode. - -``` none -vyos@vyos# commit -[edit] -vyos@vyos# exit -Warning: configuration changes have not been saved. -vyos@vyos:~$ -``` - -
- -
- -
- -Hint - -
- -You can specify a commit message with -`commit comment `. - -
- -
- -
- -save - -Use this command to preserve configuration changes upon reboot. By -default it is stored at */config/config.boot*. In the case you want -to store the configuration file somewhere else, you can add a local -path, a SCP address, a FTP address or a TFTP address. - -``` none -vyos@vyos# save -Saving configuration to '/config/config.boot'... -Done -``` - -``` none -vyos@vyos# save [tab] -Possible completions: - Save to system config file - Save to file on local machine - scp://:@:/ Save to file on remote machine - ftp://:@/ Save to file on remote machine - tftp:/// Save to file on remote machine -vyos@vyos# save tftp://192.168.0.100/vyos-test.config.boot -Saving configuration to 'tftp://192.168.0.100/vyos-test.config.boot'... -######################################################################## 100.0% -Done -``` - -
- -
- -
- -exit \[discard\] - -Configuration mode can not be exited while uncommitted changes exist. -To exit configuration mode without applying changes, the -`exit discard` command must be used. - -All changes in the working config will thus be lost. - -``` none -vyos@vyos# exit -Cannot exit: configuration modified. -Use 'exit discard' to discard the changes and exit. -[edit] -vyos@vyos# exit discard -``` - -
- -
- -commit-confirm \ - -Use this command to temporarily commit your changes and set the -number of minutes available for confirmation. `confirm` must -be entered within those minutes, otherwise the system will revert -into a previous configuration. The default value is 10 minutes. - -The definition of 'revert' and 'a previous configuration' depends on -the setting: - -``` none -vyos@vyos# set system config-management commit-confirm action -Possible completions: -reload Reload previous configuration if not confirmed -reboot Reboot to saved configuration if not confirmed (default) -``` - -Note that 'reload' loads the most recent completed configuration and does -not require a reboot. - -What if you are doing something dangerous? Suppose you want to setup -a firewall, and you are not sure there are no mistakes that will lock -you out of your system. You can use confirmed commit. If you issue -the `commit-confirm` command, your changes will be committed, and if -you don't issue the `confirm` command in 10 minutes, your -system will reboot into previous config revision. - -``` none -vyos@router# set firewall interface eth0 local name FromWorld -vyos@router# commit-confirm -commit confirm will be automatically reboot in 10 minutes unless confirmed -Proceed? [confirm]y -[edit] -vyos@router# confirm -[edit] -``` - -
- -
- -copy - -Copy a configuration element. - -You can copy and remove configuration subtrees. Suppose you set up a -firewall ruleset `FromWorld` with one rule that allows traffic from -specific subnet. Now you want to setup a similar rule, but for -different subnet. Change your edit level to -`firewall name FromWorld` and use `copy rule 10 to rule 20`, then -modify rule 20. - -``` none -vyos@router# show firewall name FromWorld - default-action drop - rule 10 { - action accept - source { - address 203.0.113.0/24 - } - } -[edit] -vyos@router# edit firewall name FromWorld -[edit firewall name FromWorld] -vyos@router# copy rule 10 to rule 20 -[edit firewall name FromWorld] -vyos@router# set rule 20 source address 198.51.100.0/24 -[edit firewall name FromWorld] -vyos@router# commit -[edit firewall name FromWorld] -``` - -
- -
- -rename - -Rename a configuration element. - -You can also rename config subtrees: - -``` none -vyos@router# rename rule 10 to rule 5 -[edit firewall name FromWorld] -vyos@router# commit -[edit firewall name FromWorld] -``` - -Note that `show` command respects your edit level and from this -level you can view the modified firewall ruleset with just `show` -with no parameters. - -``` none -vyos@router# show - default-action drop - rule 5 { - action accept - source { - address 203.0.113.0/24 - } - } - rule 20 { - action accept - source { - address 198.51.100.0/24 - } - } -``` - -
- -
- -comment \ "comment text" - -Add comment as an annotation to a configuration node. - -The `comment` command allows you to insert a comment above the -`` configuration section. When shown, comments are -enclosed with `/*` and `*/` as open/close delimiters. Comments -need to be committed, just like other config changes. - -To remove an existing comment from your current configuration, -specify an empty string enclosed in double quote marks (`""`) as -the comment text. - -Example: - -``` none -vyos@vyos# comment firewall all-ping "Yes I know this VyOS is cool" -vyos@vyos# commit -vyos@vyos# show - firewall { - /* Yes I know this VyOS is cool */ - all-ping enable - broadcast-ping disable - ... - } -``` - -
- -
- -Note - -
- -An important thing to note is that since the comment is -added on top of the section, it will not appear if the `show
` command is used. With the above example, the show -firewall command would return starting after the `firewall {` line, hiding the comment. - -
- -
- -##### Access opmode from config mode - -When inside configuration mode you are not directly able to execute -operational commands. - -
- -run - -Access to these commands are possible through the use of the -`run [command]` command. From this command you will have access to -everything accessible from operational mode. - -Command completion and syntax help with `?` and `[tab]` will also -work. - -``` none -[edit] -vyos@vyos# run show interfaces -Codes: S - State, L - Link, u - Up, D - Down, A - Admin Down -Interface IP Address S/L Description ---------- ---------- --- ----------- -eth0 0.0.0.0/0 u/u -``` - -
- -##### Managing configurations - -VyOS comes with an integrated versioning system for the system -configuration. It automatically maintains a backup of every previous -configuration which has been committed to the system. The configurations -are versioned locally for rollback but they can also be stored on a -remote host for archiving/backup reasons. - -###### Local Archive - -Revisions are stored on disk. You can view, compare and rollback them to -any previous revisions if something goes wrong. - -
- -show system commit - -View all existing revisions on the local system. - -``` none -vyos@vyos:~$ show system commit -0 2015-03-30 08:53:03 by vyos via cli -1 2015-03-30 08:52:20 by vyos via cli -2 2015-03-26 21:26:01 by root via boot-config-loader -3 2015-03-26 20:43:18 by root via boot-config-loader -4 2015-03-25 11:06:14 by root via boot-config-loader -5 2015-03-25 01:04:28 by root via boot-config-loader -6 2015-03-25 00:16:47 by vyos via cli -7 2015-03-24 23:43:45 by root via boot-config-loader -``` - -
- -
- -set system config-management commit-revisions \ - -You can specify the number of revisions stored on disk. N can be in -the range of 0 - 65535. When the number of revisions exceeds the -configured value, the oldest revision is removed. The default setting -for this value is to store 100 revisions locally. - -
- -###### Compare configurations - -VyOS lets you compare different configurations. - -
- -compare \ \ - -Use this command to spot what the differences are between different -configurations. - -``` none -vyos@vyos# compare [tab] -Possible completions: - Compare working & active configurations - saved Compare working & saved configurations - Compare working with revision N - Compare revision N with M - Revisions: - 0 2013-12-17 20:01:37 root by boot-config-loader - 1 2013-12-13 15:59:31 root by boot-config-loader - 2 2013-12-12 21:56:22 vyos by cli - 3 2013-12-12 21:55:11 vyos by cli - 4 2013-12-12 21:27:54 vyos by cli - 5 2013-12-12 21:23:29 vyos by cli - 6 2013-12-12 21:13:59 root by boot-config-loader - 7 2013-12-12 16:25:19 vyos by cli - 8 2013-12-12 15:44:36 vyos by cli - 9 2013-12-12 15:42:07 root by boot-config-loader - 10 2013-12-12 15:42:06 root by init -``` - -The command `compare` allows you to compare different type of -configurations. It also lets you compare different revisions through -the `compare N M` command, where N and M are revision -numbers. The output will describe how the configuration N is when -compared to M indicating with a plus sign (`+`) the additional -parts N has when compared to M, and indicating with a minus sign -(`-`) the lacking parts N misses when compared to M. - -``` none -vyos@vyos# compare 0 6 -[edit interfaces] -+dummy dum1 { -+ address 10.189.0.1/31 -+} -[edit interfaces ethernet eth0] -+vif 99 { -+ address 10.199.0.1/31 -+} --vif 900 { -- address 192.0.2.4/24 --} -``` - -
- -
- -show system commit diff \ - -Show commit revision difference. - -
- -The command above also lets you see the difference between two commits. -By default the difference with the running config is shown. - -``` none -vyos@router# run show system commit diff 4 -[edit system] -+ipv6 { -+ disable-forwarding -+} -``` - -This means four commits ago we did `set system ipv6 disable-forwarding`. - -###### Rollback Changes - -You can rollback configuration changes using the rollback command. This -will apply the selected revision and trigger a system reboot. - -
- -rollback \ - -Rollback to revision N (currently requires reboot) - -``` none -vyos@vyos# compare 1 -[edit system] ->host-name vyos-1 -[edit] - -vyos@vyos# rollback 1 -Proceed with reboot? [confirm][y] -Broadcast message from root@vyos-1 (pts/0) (Tue Dec 17 21:07:45 2013): -The system is going down for reboot NOW! -``` - -
- -###### Remote Archive - -VyOS can upload the configuration to a remote location after each call -to `commit`. You will have to set the commit-archive location. -TFTP, FTP, SCP and SFTP servers are supported. Every time a -`commit` is successful the `config.boot` file will be copied -to the defined destination(s). The filename used on the remote host will -be `config.boot-hostname.YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS`. - -
- -set system config-management commit-archive location \ - -Specify remote location of commit archive as any of the below -`URI (Uniform Resource Identifier)` - -- `http://:@:/` -- `https://:@:/` -- `ftp://:@/` -- `sftp://:@/` -- `scp://:@:/` -- `tftp:///` -- `git+https://:@/` - -Since username and password are part of the URI, they need to be -properly url encoded if containing special characters. - -
- -
- -Note - -
- -The number of revisions don't affect the commit-archive. - -
- -
- -
- -Note - -
- -When using Git as destination for the commit archive the -`source-address` CLI option has no effect. - -
- -
- -
- -Note - -
- -You may find VyOS not allowing the secure connection because -it cannot verify the legitimacy of the remote server. You can use -the workaround below to quickly add the remote host's SSH -fingerprint to your `~/.ssh/known_hosts` file: - -
- -``` none -vyos@vyos# ssh-keyscan >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts -``` - -
- -
- -set system config-management commit-archive vrf \ - -Specify name of the `VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding)` instance -used to upload the configuration to the remote system. - -
- -###### Saving and loading manually - -You can use the `save` and `load` commands if you want to manually -manage specific configuration files. - -When using the [save](#save) command, you can add a specific location where -to store your configuration file. And, when needed it, you will be able -to load it with the `load` command: - -
- -load \ - -Use this command to load a configuration which will replace the -running configuration. Define the location of the configuration file -to be loaded. You can use a path to a local file, an SCP address, an -SFTP address, an FTP address, an HTTP address, an HTTPS address or a -TFTP address. - -``` none -vyos@vyos# load -Possible completions: - Load from system config file - Load from file on local machine - scp://:@:/ Load from file on remote machine - sftp://:@/ Load from file on remote machine - ftp://:@/ Load from file on remote machine - http:/// Load from file on remote machine - https:/// Load from file on remote machine - tftp:/// Load from file on remote machine -``` - -
- -###### Restore Default - -In the case you want to completely delete your configuration and restore -the default one, you can enter the following command in configuration -mode: - -``` none -load /opt/vyatta/etc/config.boot.default -``` - -You will be asked if you want to continue. If you accept, you will have -to use `commit` if you want to make the changes active. - -Then you may want to `save` in order to delete the saved -configuration too. - -
- -
- -Note - -
- -If you are remotely connected, you will lose your connection. -You may want to copy first the config, edit it to ensure -connectivity, and load the edited config. - -
