If you read carefully, that is what Steffann is doing. He is doing 'load location:file' + 'commit'. He is not punching anything by hand. So the answer we are looking for is how to make that go faster. In Junos answer would be 'ephemeral config', but in IOS-XR as far as I know, the only thing you can do is improve the 'load' part by moving the server closer, other than that, you get what you get. -- ++ytti
