Alcatel Omniswitches operate in either of two modes: working or certified.
- Run
show running-directoryto know which mode the switch is currently in.- In working mode, the configuration can be modified and should be used for all config changes. According to Alcatel, it's not possible to make changes while in certified mode, but there's an easy work around below.
- During the bootup process, if working and certified configuration files are different, the switch will boot into certified mode.
- Configuration files are stored in
working/boot.cfgandcertified/boot.cfg. - These can be directly edited with
vi.
