This question discusses how to set the gui and ssh listening addresses in EdgeOS running on an EdgeRouter. I'd like to check my current configuration before making a change, as well as learn the syntax for checking other settings in the future.

Given this example...

configure
set service gui listen-address 10.0.0.1
set service ssh listen-address 10.0.0.1
commit
save
exit

... how would I check those values before setting them? I would think that the following would work...

configure
check service gui listen-address 10.0.0.1
check service ssh listen-address 10.0.0.1
exit

Running help, I see the following...

root@ubnt# help
GNU bash, version 4.1.0(2)-release (mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu)
These shell commands are defined internally.  Type `help' to see this list.
Type `help name' to find out more about the function `name'.
Use `info bash' to find out more about the shell in general.
Use `man -k' or `info' to find out more about commands not in this list.

A star (*) next to a name means that the command is disabled.

What am I missing? Should I use show instead of set? (And tab-complete my way to the variable in question?)

  • To complete the details here, I had some confusion about `commit` and `save` ... [this](https://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeMAX/EdgeOS-CLI-Primer-part-1/td-p/285388) tutorial answered those questions. – user3.1415927 Sep 23 '17 at 00:01

You should use show, and more to it, you could see an entire picture for a config section with it (or even complete configuration, if issued without parameters), not just particular value:

admin@maya:~$ configure
[edit]
admin@maya# show service dns
 forwarding {
     cache-size 150
     listen-on eth0
     listen-on eth0.10
 }
[edit]
admin@maya# show service d
dhcp-server  dns
[edit]
admin@maya# show service dns forwarding cache-size
 cache-size 150
