F Saving and restoring the
mpx100/100b configuration
The mpx100/100b configuration information is saved as a .bin or .tgz file, depending on the method
used to restore the mpx100/100b persistent data. The mpx100/100b configuration information is
saved and restored using the mpx Manager GUI or the mpx100/100b CLI commands. This appendix
contains the following information:

• Restoring the MPX100 configuration
NOTE:
As with any important database, the mpx100/100b persistent data should be periodically saved to avoid
data loss from hardware or software errors. It is also important to save the configuration information
before replacing the mpx100/100b.
