/cfg followed by:

gtcfg <protocol>	Restores a configuration, including private keys and
<server> <filename>	certificates, from a file on the specified file exchange
<passphrase>	server. You are prompted to provide the following
	information:
	• protocol is the import protocol. Options are
	tftpftpscpsftp. The default is tftp.
	• server is the host name or IP address of the file
	exchange server.
	• filename is the name of the file on the file
	exchange server.
	• passphrase is the password phrase specified
	when the configuration file was saved to the server
	using the ptcfg command.
	• for FTP, SCP, and SFTP, user name and password
	Note: If you have fully separated the Administrator user
	role from the Certificate Administrator user role, the
	Certificate Administrator must enter the correct
	passphrase. The Certificate Administrator defined the
	passphrase using the /cfg/sys/user/
	caphrase command (see page 358).
dump [<passphrase>]	Dumps the current configuration on screen in a format
	that allows you to restore the configuration without
	downloading the configuration to a file server.
	You are prompted to specify if you wish to include
	private keys in the configuration dump. If you do, then
	you are prompted to provide a password phrase in
	order to protect the private keys. The password phrase
	you specify applies to all private keys. If you later
	restore the configuration, you will be prompted for this
	password phrase.
	Save the configuration to a text file by performing a
	copy-and-paste operation to a text editor. You can later
	restore the configuration by using the global paste
	command, at any command prompt in the CLI, to paste
	the contents of the saved text file. On pasting, the
	content is batch processed by the Nortel SNAS 4050.
	To view the pending configuration changes resulting
	from the batch processing, use the diff command. To
	apply the configuration changes, use the apply
	command.
