Parameters

delay-time: Sets the configuration commit delay interval. The value range is 1 to 65535 minutes.

Usage guidelines

The configuration commit delay feature automatically removes the settings you made during the commit delay interval if you have not manually committed them before the configuration commit delay timer expires.

This feature prevents a misconfiguration from causing the inability to access the device and is especially useful when you configure the device remotely.

You can reconfigure the configuration commit delay timer before it expires to shorten or extend the commit delay interval. The settings made during the delay interval will be removed if you have not committed them before the new timer expires.

When you use this feature, follow these restrictions and guidelines:

Examples

# Set the configuration commit delay timer to 10 minutes.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] configuration commit delay 10

# Change the configuration commit delay timer to 60 minutes before the old delay timer expires.

[Sysname] configuration commit delay 60
The commit delay already set 10 minutes, overwrite it? [Y/N]:y

# Attempt to set the configuration commit delay timer to 20 minutes while the system is rolling back the configuration upon expiration of the old delay timer.

[Sysname] configuration commit delay 20
The system is rolling back configuration. Please wait…
