Nortel Networks 450 manual Parameters Not Saved to the Configuration File

Using the BayStack 450 10/100/1000 Series Switch

•A configuration file obtained from a standalone switch can only be used to configure other standalone switches that have the same firmware revision and model type as the donor standalone switch.

•A configuration file obtained from a stack unit can only be used to configure other stacks that have the same number of switches, firmware version, model types, and physical IDs as the stack the donor stack unit resides in.

Reconfigured stacks are configured according to the unit order number of the donor unit. For example, the configuration file parameters from a donor unit with physical ID x are used to reconfigure the unit with physical ID x.

•The configuration file also duplicates any settings that exist for any MDA that is installed in the donor switch.

If you use the configuration file to configure another switch that has the same MDA model installed, the configuration file settings will also apply to and override the existing MDA settings.
