the following steps to import a configuration:
1. Highlight the server (from the Moxa EtherDevice Switch list in the Configurator window’s
left pane), and then click the Import toolbar icon , or select Import Configuration from
the Configuration menu.
2. Use the Open window to navigate to the text file that contains the desired configuration. Once
the file is selected, click Open to initiate the import procedure.
