Apply Use this button to have the NXC use a specific configuration file.
Click a configuration file’s row to select it and click Apply to have the NXC use that
configuration file. The NXC does not have to restart in order to use a different configuration file,
although you will need to wait for a few minutes while the system reconfigures.
The following screen gives you options for what the NXC is to do if it encounters an error in the
configuration file.
Immediately stop applying the configuration file - this is not recommended because it would
leave the rest of the configuration blank. If the interfaces were not configured before the first
error, the console port may be the only way to access the device.
Immediately stop applying the configuration file and roll back to the previous configuration -
this gets the NXC started with a fully valid configuration file as quickly as possible.
Ignore errors and finish applying the configuration file - this applies the valid parts of the
configuration file and generates error logs for all of the configuration file’s errors. This lets the
NXC apply most of your configuration and you can refer to the logs for what to fix.
Ignore errors and finish applying the configuration file and then roll back to the previous
configuration - this applies the valid parts of the configuration file, generates error logs for all of
the configuration file’s errors, and starts the NXC with a fully valid configuration file.
Click OK to have the NXC start applying the configuration file or click Cancel to close the
screen.
# This column displays the number for each configuration file entry. This field is a sequential value,
and it is not associated with a specific address. The total number of configuration files that you
can save depends on the sizes of the configuration files and the available flash storage space.
File Name This column displays the label that identifies a configuration file.
You cannot delete the following configuration files or change their file names.
The system-default.conf file contains the NXC’s default settings. Select this file and click Apply
to reset all of the NXC settings to the factory defaults. This configuration file is included when
you upload a firmware package.
The startup-config.conf file is the configuration file that the NXC is currently using. If you make
and save changes during your management session, the changes are applied to this
configuration file. The NXC applies configuration changes made in the Web Configurator to
the configuration file when you click Apply or OK. It applies configuration changes made via
commands when you use the write command.
The lastgood.conf is the most recently used (valid) configuration file that was saved when the
device last restarted. If you upload and apply a configuration file with an error, you can apply
lastgood.conf to return to a valid configuration.
Size This column displays the size (in KB) of a configuration file.
