NOTE: The configuration file is printable, but you might want to see how many pages will be printed
before you send it to the printer; you might not want to print a lot of pages if it is too long.
Troubleshooting configuration upload
If the configuration upload fails, it may be because:
• The host name is not known to the switch.
• The host IP address cannot be contacted.
• You do not have configuration upload permission on the switch.
• You do not have permission on the host to perform configuration upload.
Resolve the issue and try the command again.
Restoring switch information
Table 34 lists critical files that you should keep in a safe place for emergency reference:
Restoring a configuration
Restoring a configuration involves overwriting the configuration on the switch by downloading a previously
saved backup configuration file. Make sure that the configuration file you are downloading is compatible
with your switch model, because configuration files from other model switches might cause your switch to
fail.
The configuration download process is additive, that is, the lines read from the files are added to the
current switch configuration. You can change a single configuration variable by downloading a file with
that specific variable only. When you do so, all other variables remain unchanged.
If your setup supports anonymous users, and you log in as an anonymous user, password is still a required
field, even though its value may be ignored by the FTP service.
