Hand-editing WIDEIP.CONF

Hi,

 

 

With TMOS 9.4.x gtmload will help you , copy your wideip.conf , make your changes and load : gtmload mywideip.conf.

 

I think with TMOS 10.x , you don 't have to use a full file.

 

 

Fred.

Yes, you are correct, thanks. gtmload will load the config, and gtmparse verifies the syntax. Thanks for the response. I also found this in the management guide, which I did not have available to me when I wrote this.

@FredR I was NOTable to use the command you posted "gtmload <*wideip.conf > , where the file name could be any edited file , this gave me an error , the version I am using is 10.2.3

 

 

The other command which worked for me by Hand Editing is as below.

 

 

1) Edit the "wideip.conf " in the /config/gtm/wideip.conf and after saving the edited file use the command

 

 

gtmparse -l

 

 

 

This command uses the file path " /config/gtm/wideip.conf"

 

 

So before doing this activity make sure you take a backup by copying the original file eg. from the /config/gtm folder

 

 

cp /config/gtm/wideip.conf ./filename_wideip.conf

 

 

now after editing the original wideip.conf , you can check for syntax using the command

 

 

gtmparse -i

 

 

eg. if I copied a wideip.conf to a file named Original_wideip.conf and edited the contents of Original_wideip.conf file, then I would check if my syntax is right using

 

 

gtmparse -i Original_wideip.conf

 

 

Hope this helps

just to add one more thing this command pasted above can also be run showing the complete path

 

 

gtmparse -i /config/gtm/Original_wideip.conf

 

 

where Original_wideip.conf is in the folder /config/gtm
