Example
a.cfg indicates a file named a.cfg
in the current working directory. If
the current working directory is on
the active MPU of the IRF fabric
(the active MPU of the master),
a.cfg represents file a.cfg on the
active MPU of the master; if the
current working directory is on an
standby MPU (any MPU except the
active MPU) of the IRF fabric, a.cfg
represents file a.cfg on the standby
MPU of the master or on a slave.
test/a.cfg indicates a file named
a.cfg in the test folder in the current
working directory.
flash:/test/a.cfg indicates a file
named a.cfg in the test folder in the
root directory of the flash memory
on the active MPU of the IRF fabric.
To read and write the a.cfg file in
the root directory of the flash on an
standby MPU of the IRF fabric (the
member ID and slot number of the
standby MPU are 2 and 5
respectively), input
chassis2#slot5#flash:/a.cfg for the
filename.
