Chapter 35 File Manager
These files have the same syntax, which is also identical to the way you run CLI
commands manually. An example is shown below.

While configuration files and shell scripts have the same syntax, the NXC applies
configuration files differently than it runs shell scripts. This is explained below.
Table 197 Configuration Files and Shell Scripts in the NXC
Configuration Files (.conf)
• Resets to default configuration.
• Goes into CLI Configuration mode.
• Runs the commands in the configuration
file.
You have to run the aforementioned example as a shell script because the first
command is run in Privilege mode. If you remove the first command, you have to
run the example as a configuration file because the rest of the commands are
executed in Configuration mode.
Comments in Configuration Files or Shell Scripts
In a configuration file or shell script, use "#" or "!" as the first character of a
command line to have the NXC treat the line as a comment.
Your configuration files or shell scripts can use "exit" or a command line consisting
of a single "!" to have the NXC exit sub command mode.

Shell Scripts (.zysh)
• Goes into CLI Privilege mode.
• Runs the commands in the shell script.
