Switching from classic configuration mode to mixed or model-driven configuration mode is normally performed by the network administrator using the configure system mgmt-itf configuration-mode [mixed | model-driven] command. The LI administrator can use the tools perform system management-interface configuration-mode [mixed | model-driven] check li command to test the LI configuration for a configuration mode migration. Only the LI administrator can use the tools command. When li-separate is not set, the user must have access to the LI and this is determined by the user profile. Within the user profile, the user must have access to configure li CLI commands. When li-separate is set, the user must have access li and also have configure li included in the user profile.

If the network administrator attempts to perform the configuration mode migration and the LI configuration requires migration, the following message appears:
Action required: LI configuration requires updating before configuration mode switch
To track details of the LI migration steps for a configuration mode migration, the LI administrator’s configuration must include ‟access li”. The LI administrator can then use the tools perform system mgmt-itf>configuration-mode [mixed | model-driven] check li command. This command serves two purposes:
verifies the steps necessary for the configuration mode migration
ensures all configuration can be migrated
The LI administrator should follow the instruction returned by the tools command to prepare the LI configuration for migration. See Migrating from classic to mixed or model-driven configuration mode for information about the list of migration steps. After completing the migration steps, the network administrator can execute the config system mgmt-itf configuration-mode [mixed | model-driven] command, and then the configuration mode migration immediately takes effect.
