STEP 4 Enter the parameters:

TFTP Server (TFTP only)—Specify the IP address of the TFTP server. Or specify the server’s domain name if DNS is enabled in the IP configuration (see Domain Name System).

Destination File Name (TFTP only)—Specify a name for the saved file, including the path on the TFTP server.

Source File Type—Select the configuration file type:

-Running Configuration—The current configuration, including any changes applied in the current management session.

-Startup Configuration—The configuration file saved to flash memory. This file does not include any configuration changes applied in RAM but not yet saved to the switch.

-Backup Configuration—An additional configuration file saved on the switch for use as a backup. The administrator can copy the Backup Configuration file to the Startup Configuration file type, then reboot the switch to use the Backup Configuration file.

-Mirror Configuration—If the Running Configuration is not modified for at least 24 hours, it is automatically saved to a Mirror Configuration file type, and a log message with severity alert is generated to indicate that a new mirror file is available. This feature allows the administrator to view the previous version of the configuration before it is saved to the Startup Configuration file type or to copy the Mirror Configuration file type to another configuration file type. If the switch is rebooted, the Mirror Configuration is reset to the factory default parameters.

-Flash Log—Log of events saved to flash memory.

-Operational Log—Log of events in switch RAM but not saved to flash memory.

-Startup Log—The first 32 messages logged when the switch is booted. Subsequent messages are logged into the Operational Log.

STEP 5 If you are backing up the Operational Log or Startup Log, select the Log Version to back up.

The switch maintains three versions of each log. The Version 1 log is the current or most recently created log file, the Version 2 log is the next most recent, and the Version 3 log is the oldest.

STEP 6 Click Apply.

SLM2008PTNA specifications

Cisco Systems SLM2008PTNA is a robust network switch designed specifically for small to medium-sized businesses. It operates with 8 Fast Ethernet ports, providing advanced features and best-in-class performance to enhance your network infrastructure. This model ensures seamless connectivity for multiple devices, making it an ideal choice for environments requiring reliable network communication.

One of the standout features of the SLM2008PTNA is its Layer 2 switching capabilities. This switch supports auto-negotiation, which allows each port to automatically detect the speed of the connected device and adjust accordingly. This ensures optimal performance and smooth operation across various connected devices. Additionally, the switch supports a non-blocking architecture, ensuring that bandwidth is not shared, which significantly enhances data transmission speed.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is another key technology incorporated into the Cisco SLM2008PTNA. It simplifies the installation of network devices such as VoIP phones, security cameras, and wireless access points by supplying power through the Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power sources, reducing installation costs and increasing flexibility in device placement.

Moreover, the SLM2008PTNA comes equipped with advanced security features, such as port security and VLAN support. Port security allows network administrators to restrict access to the network based on MAC addresses, preventing unauthorized access and enhancing network security. The support for Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) enables the segmentation of the network into different logical networks, improving traffic management and security within each segment.

The switch is designed for easy management and monitoring, featuring a user-friendly web interface that simplifies configuration. This allows network administrators to quickly set up and manage the device without requiring extensive technical knowledge. Additionally, its compact design makes it suitable for desktop or rack-mount installation, maximizing space efficiency in network environments.

In conclusion, the Cisco Systems SLM2008PTNA is an essential component for small to medium-sized businesses looking to enhance their network performance. With its Layer 2 switching capabilities, Power over Ethernet support, advanced security features, and ease of management, this switch provides a well-rounded solution for modern networking needs, delivering reliable performance and scalability for growth.
