Using the BayStack 450 10/100/1000 Series Switch
3-84 302401-D Rev 00
• A configuration file obtained from a standalone switch can only be used to
configure other standalone switches that have the same firmware revision and
model type as the donor standalone switch.
• A configuration file obtained from a stack unit can only be used to configure
other stacks that have the same number of switches, firmware version, model
types, and physical IDs as the stack the donor stack unit resides in.
Reconfigured stacks are configured according to the unit order number of the
donor unit. For example, the configuration file parameters from a donor unit
with physical ID x are used to reconfigure the unit with physical ID x.
• The configuration file also duplicates any settings that exist for any MDA that
is installed in the donor switch.
If you use the configuration file to configure another switch that has the same
MDA model installed, the configuration file settings will also apply to and
override the existing MDA settings.
