Chapter 10 Switch Configuration
You can also download image files to the switch. The image files provide the switch’s embedded software, embedded Web software, and Power over Ethernet (PoE) software.
Only parameters that differ from the factory default settings for the switch are included in the configuration file. Therefore, it is important to reinitialize the NVRAM to the factory default settings before downloading configuration files to the switch.
The P330 commands for uploading and downloading device configuration files differ for the Layer 2 and Layer 3 configuration files.
To upload or download files, you must log in to the device as a user with Supervisor level privileges.
Layer 2 Configuration File
The Layer 2 configuration file contains the full Layer 2 configuration of the switch in the format of the CLI commands necessary to configure the device to its current configuration. The user can edit the file in a text editor, however, it is recommended that configuration changes are performed using the MSNM P330 Device Manager and/or the CLI. To upload or download Layer 2 configuration files, you must be in a switch mode.
Use the CLI commands briefly described below for uploading and downloading Layer 2 configuration files. The rules of syntax and output examples are all set out in detail in the Reference Guide.
