File System Configuration Overview

The File System Menus allow you to choose the active system
configuration file, create a system configuration file, and perform basic
file operations on system files.

You may want to create a configuration file to perform a routine task or
to ensure all your AT-8400 switches have an identical configuration.
There are two ways of obtaining new configuration files. You can create
a configuration file with the File System Menus or you can upload a
configuration file (see Setting, Creating, Editing, and Displaying
System Configuration Files
on page 137.) After yo
u use either method,
you can load the new configuration file onto the switch with the File
System Menus. In addition, you can view the contents of the
configuration file.

Note

The default name for the configuration file is boot.cfg.

In addition, the File System Menus, allow you to perform basic file
operations on system files. You can display copy, rename, and delete
system files. The following file types are the supported system files:

❑ certificate files

❑ certificate enrollment request files

❑ configuration files

❑ image files

❑ key files

For in-depth information about certificate and certificate enrollment
request files, see Chapter 21: Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) on page
357. For informat
ion about the configuration file, see Chapter 10: File
System Configuration
on page 133. The image
file is the AT-S60
management software. For information about the key file, see Chapter
20:
Encryption on page 340.

All of the above system file types have the same naming conventions.
See the next section for more details.
