Introducing the Commands
This chapter introduces the commands and gives a summary of commands available.
32.1 Overview
In addition to the web configurator, you can use line commands to configure the switch. Use line commands for advanced switch diagnosis and troubleshooting. If you have problems with your switch, customer support may request that you issue some of these commands to assist them in troubleshooting.
"See the web configurator parts of this User’s Guide for background information on features configurable by the web configurator.
32.1.1Switch Configuration File
When you configure the switch using either the CLI or web configurator, the settings are saved as a series of commands in a configuration file on the switch. You can perform the following with a configuration file:
•Back up switch configuration once the switch is set up to work in your network.
•Restore switch configuration.
•Use the same configuration file to set all switches (of the same model) in your network to the same settings.

You may also edit a configuration file using a text editor.
Make sure you use valid commands. The switch rejects configuration files with invalid or incomplete commands.
