310 Summit 200 Series Switch Installation and User Guide
Software Upgrade and Boot Options
NOTE
If the switch is rebooted while in the middle of a configuration save, the switch boots to factory default
settings. The configuration that is not in the process of being saved is unaffected.
Returning to Factory Defaults
To return the switch configuration to factory defaults, use the following command:
unconfig switch
This command resets the entire configuration, with the exception of user accounts and passwords that
have been configured, and the date and time.
To erase the currently selected configuration image and reset all switch parameters, use the following
command:
unconfig switch all
Using TFTP to Upload the Configuration
You can upload the current configuration to a TFTP server on your network. The uploaded ASCII file
retains the command-line interface (CLI) format. This allows you to:
• Modify the configuration using a text editor, and later download a copy of the file to the same
switch, or to one or more different switches.
• Send a copy of the configuration file to the Extreme Networks Technical Support department for
problem-solving purposes.
• Automatically upload the configuration file every day, so that the TFTP server can archive the
configuration on a daily basis. Because the filename is not changed, the configured file stored in the
TFTP server is overwritten every day.
To upload the configuration, use the following command:
upload configuration [<ipaddress> | <hostname>] <filename> {every <time>}
where:
To cancel a previously scheduled configuration upload, use the following command:
ipaddress Specifies the IP address of the TFTP server.
hostname Specifies the hostname of the TFTP server. (You must enable DNS to
use this option.)
filename Specifies the name of the ASCII file. The filename can be up to 255
characters long, and cannot include any spaces, commas, quotation
marks, or special characters.
every <time> Specifies the time of day you want the configuration automatically
uploaded on a daily basis. If not specified, the current configuration
is immediately uploaded to the TFTP server.
