Configuration Save and Restore

The Cisco MGX 8220 shelf provides save and restore functions, which are performed using the TFTP facility.

The save function allows a user to copy a service module’s current configuration file (which is saved on a disk on the ASC) to a network file system. The restore function allows a user to copy a service module’s configuration file from the network file system to the ASC’s disk. Using these functions, the configuration files for Cisco MGX 8220 service modules can be backed up to an independent network system and later restored if the configuration files in the Cisco MGX 8220 shelf become lost or corrupted, or if the configuration needs to be restored to a previous version.
