Note: Detailed information about scripting can be found under the section
'scripting' in the chapter on Network Management with LANtools in the
user manual configuration.
In addition to manually setting a script and console read-outs, script files can
also be read out from a device with the help of LANconfig. For this, right click
on the corresponding entry in the device list and select the entry Configura-
tion management
 Save script to file from the context menu. Select the
following options here:
D Numeric sections
Enable this option if you do not want the configuration sections in the
script to be displayed in cleartext (e.g.
/setup/wlan/ppp
), but numerically
(
/2/2/5
).
D Default parameters
Unless defined otherwise, the only parameters saved in a script are those
that deviate from the default values. Enable this option if the standard val-
ues should also be entered into the script.
D Column names
Unless defined otherwise, the fields of a table are initially entered as col-
umn names in the scripts and, thereafter, only the respective values are
inserted into the rows. Enable this option when every value in the table
should explicitly receive the description of the column in which it is
inserted.
D Comments
Activate this option when additional comments should be included in the
script file.
D Compact formatting
D Enable this option if spaces and tabs should be suppressed.
D Download only selected sections
Without further entries, the entire device configuration will always be
saved in the script. In contrast, entering the sections also makes it possi-
ble to save partial configurations. Enter the sections to which the script
should be transferred into this field, e.g.
/setup/wlan
.
5.3.4 Uploading configuration commands and
script files
There are two basic methods of uploading the script commands to the inter-
mediate memory of the BAT:
