restore

Restores configuration settings to an out-of-band switch from a backup file named configdata, which must be first uploaded on the switch using FTP. You create the backup file using the Config Backup command. Use FTP to load the backup file on a switch, then enter the Config Restore command. After the restore is complete, the switch automatically resets. Refer to ”Backing up and Restoring Switch Configurations” on page B-3.

Note:	„ If the restore process changes the IP address, all management
	sessions are terminated. Use the Set Setup System command to
	return the IP configuration to the values you want. Refer to the ”Set
	Setup Command” on page B-49.
	„ Configuration archive files created with the SANsurfer Switch
	Manager Archive function are not compatible with the Config
	Restore command.
