Configuration File
The Configuration File Download/Upload screen (Figure 3-49) allows you to
store your switch/stack configuration parameters on a TFTP server.
You can retrieve the configuration parameters of a standalone switch or an entire
stack and use the retrieved parameters to automatically configure a replacement
switch or stack. Certain requirements apply when automatically configuring a
switch or stack using this feature (see
“Requirements” on page 3-126). You must
set up the file on your TFTP server and set the file name read/write permission to
Enabled before you can save the configuration parameters.
Although most configuration parameters are saved to the configuration file,
certain parameters are not saved (see
Table 3-45 on page 3-127).
Choose Configuration File (or press g) from the main menu to open the
Configuration File Download/Upload screen.
