Reload conf from bigip.conf

Are there any commands to cause the BigIP to reload its configuration from the bigip.conf file? Certain configuration changes I'm making are easiest to make directly in the file, but the only way I've found to get the BigIP to see the changes is to reboot the machine. I didn't see any arguments to `b config` to get it to refresh from the files.

 

 

Thanks!

    b load will load the configuration from the config files. Use this when editing the files directly.

     

     

    b save will save the active configuration to the config files. Use this when editing with the bigpipe commands.

     

     

    Note that beginning in 9.4.2, changes made directly to the config files might get overwritten. Read Deb's article on syslog-ng for details: Click here

    Wow, I managed to completely miss the 'load' command. I was stuck looking at just the 'config' command.

     

    Thanks!
