Basic Switch Configuration Procedures

Displaying the System Configuration Settings

To display the system configuration settings:

1.Login to the switch as the admin user.

2.At the command line, enter the following command: configShow

The system configuration settings displays.

For more information on the system configuration settings, refer to the

Departmental Switch Model DS-16B2 Fabric OS Reference Manual.

Backing Up the System Configuration Settings

Currently, only the RSHD.EXE and CAT.EXE utilities provide support for performing uploads for Windows hosts. Therefore, you must use FTP on Windows workstations to backup the system configuration, and the FTP service must be running before an upload can occur.

To upload a backup copy of the configuration settings to a host computer:

1.Verify that the RSHD service (on UNIX hosts only) or the FTP service (on UNIX or Windows host) is running on the host workstation.

2.Log in to the switch as the admin user.

3.At the command line, enter the following command: configUpload hostIPaddr, user, path_filename, password

4.Press ENTER.

The dialog box prompts you to enter the Host IP address, User Name, Filename, and password.

All filenames/pathnames must be in UNIX syntax even if being executed from a Windows-based system (i.e., /temp/switch_2.txt).
