# macro

#### Syntax

macro [ test | verbose ] { fileName.mac [ macroName [ arg ]* ] |
name macroName [ arg ]* }

#### Release Information

Command introduced before JUNOSe Release 7.1.0.

#### Description

Executes a macro file, which can consist of one or more macros. If you do not use the macroName option to specify a macro, the command searches in the specified macro file for a macro named “ start,” and returns an error if the “ start” macro is not found. If you do not specify fileName.mac, you must specify name macroName; the command then searches only in local memory for a file called macroName.mac that contains the macroName macro. There is no no version.

#### Options

- test—Displays the output of the macro without issuing the commands to the router, and displays comments
- verbose—Echoes each command as the macro executes and displays comments
- fileName—Name of the file containing the macro; requires the .mac extension
- macroName—Name of a macro within the macro file
- arg—Zero or more arguments passed to the macro; if the argument contains a space or other special character, the argument must be enclosed within double quotation marks
- *—Indicates that one or more parameters can be repeated multiple times in a list in the command line

#### Mode
