Script authors can use any names they want for their variables. However, the variables listed below are used internally by Configuration Management. As a general rule, script authors should avoid using these variable names in their scripts.

  • AddCommunity RO
  • AddCommunity RW
  • AddPassword
  • AddPrivilegedPassword
  • AddReadOnly
  • AddReadWrite
  • AddUserName
  • CommandPrompt
  • CommandTerminator
  • FileTransferMethod
  • LoginTerminator
  • MorePrompt
  • MoreResponse
  • Password
  • PasswordPrompt
  • PrivilegedPassword
  • RemoveCommunity RO
  • RemoveCommunity RW
  • RemovePassword
  • RemovePrivilegedPassword
  • RemoveReadOnly
  • RemoveReadWrite
  • RemoveUserName
  • TFTPServerAddress
  • TransferFileName
  • TransferFileDirectory
  • UserName
  • UserNamePrompt

Occassionally, a script may need to re-define one or more of these variables to affect the internal operation of Configuration Management commands. The section on Configuration Management commands describes the meanings and uses of these variables, and how scripts can re-define them to modify the behavior of Configuration Management commands.
