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 TFTP Server. 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. Currently, you must use TFTP.
