Description
Filename Enter the name of the file on the EDS (local to its file system) that
contains XCR data.
Lines to Import Select the lines whose settings you want to import. Click the Select All
link to select all the serial lines and the network lines. Click the Clear All
link to clear all of the checkboxes. By default, all serial line instances are
selected.
Only the selected line instances will be imported in the line, lpd, serial,
tunnel, and terminal groups.
Whole Groups to
Import
Select the configuration groups to import from the XML configuration
record. This option imports all instances of each selected group unless it
is one of the Lines to Import.
Note: By default, all groups are checked except those pertaining to the
network configuration; this is so that import will not break your network
connectivity.
You may check or uncheck any group to include or omit that group from
import. To import all of the groups, click the Select All link to import all
groups. To clear all the checkboxes, click the Clear All link.
Text List Enter a string to import specific instances of a group. The textual format
of this string is:
<g>:<i>;<g>:<i>;...
Each group name <g> is followed by a colon and the instance value <i>
and each <g>:<i> value is separated by a semi-colon. If a group has no
instance, then specify the group name <g> only.
Use this option for groups other than those affected by Lines to Import.
Import Line(s) from Single Line Settings on the Filesystem This selection copies line settings from the single line instance in the input file to selected
lines. The import file may only contain records from a single line instance; this is done by
selecting a single Line to Export when exporting the file.
