Configuration File
The Configuration File Download/Upload screen ( Figure 3-34 ) allows you to
store your switch/stack configuration parameters on a TFTP server.
You can retrieve the configuration parameters of a standalone switch or an entire
stack and use the retrieved parameters to automatically configure a replacement
switch or stack. Certain requirements apply when automatically configuring a
switch or stack using this feature (see
“Requirements ” on page 3-83 ). You must
set up the file on your TFTP server and set the filename read/write permission to
enabled before you can save the configuration paramenters.
Although most configuration parameters are saved to the configuration file,
certain parameters are not saved (see
Table 3-31 on page 3-84 ).
Choose Configuration File (or press g) from the main menu to open the
Configuration File Download/Upload screen.
