	modify db [name] reset-to-default

   DISPLAY
	list db

DESCRIPTION
       You can use the db component to modify and retrieve the data that is
       stored in the bigdb configuration database.

       Important: After you change a bigdb database variable using the db
       component, you must run the command sequence save config. If you do
       not, the next time that you run the command sequence load [config base
       | config], the value of the bigdb database variable may be reset to the
       value in the stored configuration.

       Note that tmsh only displays bigdb database entries when you explicitly
       request them.

EXAMPLES
       modify db Connection.SynCookies.Threshold value 16384

       Sets the database entry, SYN Check(tm) Activation Threshold, to the
       given value.

       modify db Connection.SynCookies.Threshold reset-to-default

       Sets the database entry, SYN Check(tm) Activation Threshold, back to
       the default value.

       list log.mcpd.level

       Displays the properties of the database entry log.mcpd.level:

OPTIONS
       default-value
	    Displays the system-supplied default value of the database entry.

       glob Displays the items that match the glob expression. See help glob
	    for a description of glob expression syntax.

       name Specifies the unique name of the database variable. This option is
	    required for the command modify.

       regex
	    Displays the items that match the regular expression. The regular
	    expression must be preceded by an at sign (@[regular expression])
	    to indicate that the identifier is a regular expression. See help
	    regex for a description of regular expression syntax.

       reset-to-default
	    Resets the database variable back to its default value.

       value
	    Specifies the value to which you want to set the specified
	    database entry.

       value-range
	    Displays the type of data that you can use with the value option.
	    The options are:

	    integer
	    IP address
	    list of valid values
	    management IP address
	    string
	    unsigned integer
