Basic Configuration 3

Downloading Configuration Settings from a Server

You can download the configuration file under a new file name and then set it as the startup file, or you can specify the current startup configuration file as the destination file to directly replace it. Note that the file “Factory_Default_Config.cfg” can be copied to the TFTP server, but cannot be used as the destination on the switch.

Web – Click System, File Management, Copy Operation. Choose “tftp to startup-config” or “tftp to file,” and enter the IP address of the TFTP server. Specify the name of the file to download, select a file on the switch to overwrite or specify a new file name, and then click Apply.

Figure 3-13 Downloading Configuration Settings for Start-Up

If you download to a new file name using “tftp to startup-config” or “tftp to file,” the file is automatically set as the start-up configuration file. To use the new settings, reboot the system via the System/Reset menu. You can also select any configuration file as the start-up configuration by using the System/File Management/Set Start-Up page.
