Enabling Software Features on Devices Using a Command Option

This capability to activate software applications or components on a device using a command is supported on this platform.
Starting with Release 9.4(0.0), you can enable or disable specific software features or applications that need to run on a device by
using a command attribute in the CLI interface. This capability enables effective, streamlined management and administration of
applications and utilities that run on a device. You can employ this capability to perform an on-demand activation or turn-off of a
software component or protocol. A feature configuration file that is generated for each image contains feature names denotes
whether this enabling or disabling method is available for such features. In 9.4(0.0), you can enable or disable the VRF application
globally across the system by using this capability.
You can activate VRF application on a device by using the feature vrf command in CONFIGURATION mode.
NOTE: The no feature vrf command is not supported on any of the platforms.
To enable the VRF feature and cause all VRF-related commands to be available or viewable in the CLI interface, use the following
command. You must enable the VRF feature before you can configure its related attributes.
Dell(conf)# feature vrf
Based on whether VRF feature is identified as supported in the Feature Configuration file, configuration command feature vrf
becomes available for usage. This command will be stored in running-configuration and will precede all other VRF-related
configurations.
NOTE: The MXL and Z9000 platforms currently do not support VRF. These platforms support only the management and
default VRFs, which are available by default. As a result, the feature vrf command is not available for these platforms.
To display the state of Dell Networking OS features:
Dell#show feature
Example of show feature output
For a particular target where VRF is enabled, the show output is similar to the following:
Feature State

The command-history trace feature captures all commands entered by all users of the system with a time stamp and writes these
messages to a dedicated trace log buffer.
The system generates a trace message for each executed command. No password information is saved to the file.
To view the command-history trace, use the show command-history command.
