If you need to roll back configuration changes, you can use a saved version to roll back the system software image and configuration files to a known state. Before you can save a version of a network plan, you need to deploy and save the network plan. Versions of network plans are saved in the db/xml/versions directory in the 3WXM installation directory.

After you have saved a version of a network plan, the version appears in the list of network plans available to open. If you open a version of a network plan, you are asked whether you want to deploy it or open it. When the version is open, you see its version name in the title bar of the main 3WXM window.

Configuration Files

You can import or export switch configuration files in Extensible Markup Language (XML) format.

„The import option enables you to create a WX switch in the network plan by importing configuration files 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 switch’s configuration to an XML file. After exporting a WX configuration to an XML file, you can import it to another instance of 3WXM or use it as a backup copy.

If you import a configuration containing information that an older version of 3WXM or MSS does not support, the information is ignored when the configuration is imported.
