Temporarily Updating a Con®guration

The ability to temporarily update a con®guration allows you to make changes to some of the operating characteristics of a 2210 until you can make permanent updates to the con®guration. This enables you to implement changes immediately to resolve problems or improve performance and avoid an outage during a peak period. You can then make permanent updates to the con®guration and schedule an outage so you can restart to pick up the change.

To temporarily update a con®guration:

1.Access the 2210 you are updating as described in ªAccessing the Software Using Local and Remote Consolesº on page 3. You will see the * prompt.
