Config Transfer
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Transfers a file containing the ATLAS_ 800PLUS configuration to a file on a TFTP
server using the TFTP protocol (a TCP/IP user protocol) through the 10BaseT
Ethernet port. Config Transfer lets you save the ATLAS_ 800PLUS configuration as a
backup file. You can then use the same configuration with multiple ATLAS_
800PLUS units.
You can also use Config Transfer to retrieve a configuration file from a TFTP server.
ADTRAN delivers a TFTP program with ATLAS_ 800PLUS called TFTPServer. You
can configure any PC running Microsoft Windows with this software to store the
configuration file. See “TFTP Server” on page 10-4 for details on how to use the
TFTP Server software with these menu items to transfer configuration files.
Before using this command, the ATLAS 800 PLUS should have a valid IP address,
subnet mask, and default gateway (if required), and should be connected to an
Ethernet network.
Only one configuration transfer session (upload or download) can be active at a
time. The TCP/IP parameters are not saved or overwritten as part of an ATLAS
800 PLUS unit’s transferred configuration to allow sending identical configurations
to multiple units.
Transfer Method
Write security: 3; Read security: 5
Displays the method used to transfer the configuration file to or from a server.
