Working with Configuration Files
Configuration files can contain some or all of the commands needed to configure one or more switches. For example, you might want to download the same configuration file to several switches that have the same hardware configuration so that they have identical module and port configurations.
This section describes how to work with configuration files and has the following topics:
•Displaying Configuration Files, page
•Downloading Configuration Files to the Switch, page
•Saving the Configuration, page
•Copying Files, page
•Backing Up the Current Configuration, page
•Rolling Back to a Previous Configuration, page
