followed by:
gtcfg <protocol>
<host name or
IP address of
server> <filename
on server>
Restores a configuration, including private keys and
certificates, from a file on the specified file exchange
server. You are prompted to provide the following
information:
•
protocol is the import protocol. Options are
tftp|ftp|scp|sftp . The default is tftp .
•
server is the host name or IP address of the file
exchange server.
•
filename is the name of the file on the file
exchange server.
ATTENTION
If you have fully separated the Administrator user
role from the Certificate Administrator user role,
the Certificate Administrator must enter the correct
passphrase. The Certificate Administrator defined the
passphrase using the
/cfg/sys/user/caphrase .
dump [ <private/s
ecret keys> ]
Dumps the current configuration on screen in a format
that allows you to restore the configuration without
downloading the configuration to a file server.
You are prompted to specify if you wish to include
private keys in the configuration dump. If you do, then
you are prompted to provide a password phrase in
order to protect the private keys. The password phrase
you specify applies to all private keys. If you later
restore the configuration, you will be prompted for this
password phrase.
Save the configuration to a text file by performing a
copy-and-paste operation to a text editor. You can later
restore the configuration by using the global
paste
command, at any command prompt in the CLI, to
paste the contents of the saved text file. On pasting,
the content is batch processed by the Nortel SNAS.
To view the pending configuration changes resulting
from the batch processing, use the
diff command.
To apply the configuration changes, use the apply
command.
