Updating the Configuration File
Once downloaded from the device, the configuration file can be updated using a variety of different tools:
NOTE
For information about uploading/downloading files, refer to Section 3.5, “Uploading/Downloading Files”.
• Any text editing program capable of reading and writing ASCII files
• Difference/patching tools (e.g. the UNIX diff and patch command line utilities)
• Source Code Control systems (e.g. CVS, SVN)
CAUTION!
Do not edit an encrypted configuration file. Any line that has been modified manually will be ignored.

device:
