confirm (rollback)

Use confirm to prevent the Passport 4400 unit from resetting to the configuration data and/or code which was working before changes were made. Rollback is a service whose primary function is to prevent the Passport 4400 unit from becoming unreachable from the rest of the network because of new configuration or code, including delete functions. It can be enabled or disabled, and is disabled by default.

Once the reboot occurs, the timer begins and the user must confirm the rollback with the command <confirm rollback confirm>.
