This section describes how to lock the system configuration when multiple users manage a device at the same time. This operation avoids the inconsistency between the controller and forwarder.
Multiple users can access a device and manage it. A user can be a controller or another type of user. If the configuration of a forwarder is modified by a non-controller user, the configurations of the controller and forwarder may be inconsistent. The following steps can be used to specify the controller to lock the system configuration of a forwarder to avoid the inconsistency.
The system view is displayed.
The system configuration is locked by a specified user.
The configuration is committed.
Run the display configuration exclusive by-user-name command to view lock information of the system configuration locked based on user name.
