Uploading and Downloading Device Configurations and
Images
The C360 allows you to backup and restore device configurations and configure multiple
devices using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and Trivial File Transfer Protocol
(TFTP) or Secure Copy Protocol (SCP) to exchange information with the devices. For more
information on SNMP, refer to
SNMP Support on page 75. For more information on SCP, refer
to SCP Protocol Support on page 105.
When you make changes to a switch’s configuration, you may find that the overall effect of the
configuration change may have a negative effect on the performance of the device in your
network. By uploading a switch’s configuration file before any configuration changes, you can
easily restore the switch to a previous configuration.
In addition, you can download the same configuration file to multiple devices in the network,
resulting in a consistent configuration.
You can also download image files to the switch. The image files provide the switch’s firmware
and device manager.
Tip:
Tip:
Only parameters that differ from the factory default settings for the switch are
included in the configuration file. Therefore, it is important to re-initialize the
NVRAM to the factory default settings before downloading configuration files to
the switch.
The C360 commands for uploading and downloading device configuration files differ for the
Layer 2 and Layer 3 configuration files.
Tip:
Tip:
To upload or download files, you must log in to the device as a user with
Supervisor level privileges.
