Working with MPX200 router configurations
Successfully managing routers with the CLI depends on effective router configurations. Key router
management tasks include modifying configurations, backing up configurations, and restoring
configurations.
Modifying a configuration
The router has the following major areas of configuration:
• Management port configuration requires the use of the following commands:
• The “ set mgmt command ” on page 283
• The “ show mgmt command ” on page 296
• iSCSI port configuration requires using the following commands:
• The “ set iSCSI command ” on page 282
• The “ show iSCSI command ” on page 292
• VPG configuration requires the following commands:
• The “ set VPGroups command ” on page 286
• The “ show VPGroups command ” on page 303
• LUN mapping requires the use of the “ show lunmask command ” on page 295.
Saving and restoring router configurations
Saving and restoring a configuration helps protect your work. You can also use a saved configuration
as a template for configuring other routers.
Persistent data consists of system settings, VPG settings, LUN mappings, discovered FC targets, and
discovered iSCSI initiators. To save a blade’s configuration and persistent data:
1. Generate a file (
HP_StorageWorks_MPX200_FRU.bin
) containing the saved data by entering
the
fru save
CLI command.
This command stores the file locally on the router in an FTP directory.
2. Transfer the saved data from the router to a workstation by executing an FTP utility on a
workstation.
The following example shows an FTP transfer to get the saved router configuration data:
c:\>
ftp 172.17.137.102
