config system settings

In certain situations, the options may not update correctly when modifying an existing configuration. In such cases, consider using the 'unset' command before applying the new options with the 'set' command.

 

For example, current config:

 

config system settings

    set gui-default-policy-columns "policyid" "name" "consolidated-srcaddr" "profile" "service" "action" "consolidated-poolname" "bytes"

end

 

To modify:

 

Step 1: unset.

 

config system settings

    unset gui-default-policy-columns

end

 

Step 2: set.

 

config system settings

    set gui-default-policy-columns "policyid" "service" "action" "profile" "bytes" "name" "consolidated-poolname" "consolidated-srcaddr" "consolidated-dstaddr"

end
