Name and directory path of the file from which you want to load the SSL certificate to the
device.
Note
Since the private key and certificate belong together, files are saved only after both the key
and certificate have been downloaded. When you load the certificate, it is checked to make
sure it matches the loaded key. A restart is
required before the new SSL files are adopted.
Only private RSA keys with a maximum length of 128 bytes are accepted, private keys must
not be password protected.
An SSL certificate must be PEM coded, its length must not exceed 256 bytes.
How to load data over HTTP / HTTPS
1. In the relevant text box, enter a name and directory path for the file from which you want
to take the data.
2. Start loading the relevant file by clicking one of the buttons "Load Firmware and Restart",
"Load Configuration and Restart", "Load Private Key" or "Load Certificate and Restart".
There is an automatic restart after downloading except following "Load Private Key" and
the device starts up again with the new data.
How to save data over HTTP / HTTPS
1. Start the save by clicking one of the buttons "Save Configuration", "Save Log Table",
"Save Firmware", "Save Private MIB" or "Save GSDML File".
2. You will be prompted to select a storage location and a name for the file or to accept the
proposed file name.
Reusing configuration data
Saving and reading in configuration data reduces the effort if several IE switches have the
same configuration and when IP addresses are obtained over DHCP.
Note
Using the same configuration on multiple IE switches
The configuration of an IE switch cannot be loa
ded on every other IE switch.
You will find a list of compatible devices in the section "
Using the same configuration on
(Page 383)".
Save the configuration data on your computer after you have configured an IE switch. As an
alternative, you can save the data on a TFTP server (Page 48).
Download this file to all other IE switches you want to configure.
If individual settings are necessary for specific devices, these must be made online.
The stored configuration data is coded and, as a result, these files cannot be edited with a
text editor.
