Configuration Files
The import option enables you to create a WX switch in the network plan by importing configuration files that were created with the CLI or in Extensible Markup Language (XML) format. You also can update the configuration of a switch that is already in the plan.
The export option enables you to save a WX switch configuration to a CLI or XML file. Using the CLI, you can transfer a configuration file in CLI format to WX using TFTP. After exporting an WX configuration to an XML file, you can import it to another instance of 3WXM or use it as a backup copy.
