Basic Configuration

Saving or Restoring Configuration Settings

You can upload/download configuration setting files to/from a TFTP server or copy files to and from switch units in a stack. The configuration files can be later downloaded to restore the switch’s settings.

Command Usage

When updating the PoE controller, first copy the PD controller file from a TFTP server to the switch's file system (tftp to file), and then copy this file to the controller (file to file).

When specifying the file type “PD_Controller” or “PoE” for copy operations via the web or CLI, file types other than PoE controller may be downloaded, but will not adversely affect the system.

Command Attributes

File Transfer Method: The configuration copy operation includes these options:

file to file - Copies a file within the switch directory, assigning it a new name.

file to running-config - Copies a file in the switch to the running configuration.

file to startup-config - Copies a file in the switch to the startup configuration.

file to tftp - Copies a file from the switch to a TFTP server.

running-config to file - Copies the running configuration to a file.

running-config to startup-config - Copies the running config to the startup config.

running-config to tftp - Copies the running configuration to a TFTP server.

startup-config to file - Copies the startup configuration to a file on the switch.

startup-config to running-config - Copies the startup config to the running config.

startup-config to tftp - Copies the startup configuration to a TFTP server.

tftp to file - Copies a file from a TFTP server to the switch.

tftp to running-config - Copies a file from a TFTP server to the running config.

tftp to startup-config - Copies a file from a TFTP server to the startup config.

file to unit - Copies a file from this switch to another unit in the stack.

unit to file - Copies a file from another unit in the stack to this switch.

TFTP Server IP Address: The IP address of a TFTP server.

• File Name:

The file name should not contain slashes (\ or /), the leading letter of the file

 

name should not be a period (.), and the maximum length for file names on the

 

TFTP server is 127 characters or 31 characters for files on the switch.

 

Valid characters: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, “.”, “-”, “_”

Source/Destination Unit: Specifies the switch stack unit number.

• File Type:

Allows you to specify an operational code (opcode), a configuration (config), or a

 

PoE controller (PD_Controller) file.

The maximum number of user-defined configuration files is limited only by available flash memory space.

NXA-ENET24 specifications

The AMX NXA-ENET24 is a versatile and powerful networked control interface designed to meet the growing demands of modern AV systems. This network switch offers an exceptional combination of reliability, performance, and scalability, making it an ideal choice for professional environments such as conference rooms, educational facilities, and control rooms.

One of the key features of the NXA-ENET24 is its 24-port configuration, allowing for extensive connectivity options. Each port supports 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds, ensuring that high bandwidth applications are handled with ease. Additionally, the switch incorporates advanced auto-negotiation technology, which automatically configures the optimal speed and duplex mode for connected devices. This ensures seamless connectivity and minimizes the risk of network disruptions.

The NXA-ENET24 is designed with advanced management capabilities, including support for VLANs, which helps to segment network traffic for enhanced security and performance. Network administrators can easily create virtual local area networks to optimize traffic flow and reduce congestion. This feature is particularly beneficial in environments where multiple AV systems operate concurrently.

Another significant characteristic of the NXA-ENET24 is its support for Power over Ethernet, or PoE. This feature enables the switch to deliver electrical power alongside data through the network cables. As a result, devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points can be powered directly from the switch, simplifying deployment and reducing the need for additional power sources.

Monitoring and management of the switch are made easier through a user-friendly interface. The NXA-ENET24 supports SNMP for network management, allowing users to monitor performance metrics, configure settings, and receive alerts in case of issues. This level of oversight is crucial for maintaining the stability of AV systems in mission-critical applications.

Durability is another hallmark of the NXA-ENET24 design. The switch features a robust chassis that is engineered to withstand the rigors of professional use. With cooling mechanisms in place and a fanless design, the NXA-ENET24 operates quietly and efficiently, making it suitable for environments where noise is a concern.

In conclusion, the AMX NXA-ENET24 is a powerful, reliable, and feature-rich network switch that effectively supports modern AV applications. With its extensive connectivity options, advanced management capabilities, PoE support, and durable design, it is an excellent choice for integrators and organizations looking to optimize their network infrastructure.
