Using configuration files in different versions of the FL SWITCH 2xxx/FL NAT 2xxx
series
In principle, every configuration file of an FL SWITCH 2xxx/FL NAT 2xxx can be transferred
to every other version of this product family. It must be observed, however, that the individ-
ual versions have different scopes of functions and numbers of ports. When reading the
configuration file, the switch ignores functions or port numbers that are not supported, and
does not change affected configuration parameters.
Examples:
• Configuration files of versions 22xx/23xx/24xx/25xx/26xx/27xx may contain parame-
ters for functions that are not supported by versions 20xx/21xx. During reading on a
20xx/21xx device, the corresponding entries in the configuration file are ignored.
• During reading on a 5/8-port device, the entries for configuration of ports 9 to 16 are
ignored.
Inversely, the parameters of ports 9 to 16 are set to the factory default when the config-
uration of a 5/8-port device is read on a 16-port device.
