Configuring configuration commit delay
This feature enables the system to automatically remove the settings you made during a configuration commit delay interval if you have not manually committed them.
You specify the configuration commit delay interval by using the configuration commit delay timer. Any settings made during the delay interval will be automatically removed if you have not manually committed them before the timer expires.
This feature prevents a misconfiguration from causing the inability to access the device and is especially useful when you configure the device remotely.
When you use this feature, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
In a multi-user context, make sure no one else is configuring the device.
You cannot perform any operations during the configuration rollback.
The configuration commit delay feature is a one-time setting. The feature is disabled when the commit delay timer expires or after a manual commit is performed.
You can reconfigure the configuration commit delay timer before it expires to shorten or extend the commit delay interval. The settings made during the delay interval will be removed if you have not committed them before the new timer expires.
