Configuring Information to Test the Network Publisher

You can use an input file to verify that the network publisher is collecting information as configured or to set up a demonstration for an application.

To configure the network publisher to use an input file:

  1. Enable the network publisher to use an input file for all routers or for a specific router.

    Sample syntax for all routers:

      [edit slot 0 network-publisher routers test-mode]
      user@host# set enable-file-input

    Sample syntax to collect information for a router named my-router:

      [edit slot 0 network-publisher routers router my-router test-mode]
      user@host# set enable-file-input
  2. Run the network publisher.
      user@host> request network-publisher execute
