Example for One User to Configure Services After Another User Locks Configurations in Two-Phase Validation Mode

This section provides an example for one user to configure services on a router after another user locks configurations.

Networking Requirements

As shown inFigure 1, both user A and user B log in to the router. After user A locks configurations on the router, user B attempts to configure services on the router.

Figure 1 Networking for one user to configure services after another user locks configurations in two-phase validation mode

To use the running database exclusively, lock configurations on the router to prevent other users from configuring services or committing configurations. In this case, the system displays a message indicating that the configuration is locked by a user when other users attempt to perform configurations. Other users can configure services in the running database only after you unlock configurations.

Configuration Roadmap

The configuration roadmap is as follows:

Simulate a situation in which user A locks configurations.
Simulate a situation in which user B configures a service.

Data Preparation

To complete the configuration, you need an interface IP address.

Procedure

Simulate a situation in which user A locks configurations.
```
<HUAWEI> configuration exclusive
```

Simulate a situation in which user B configures a service.
