NOTE: Because some configuration parameters require a reboot to take effect, after you download a
configuration file you must reboot to be sure that the parameters are enabled. Before the reboot, this type
of parameter is listed in the configuration file, but it is not effective until after the reboot.
Security considerations
Security parameters and the switch's identity cannot be changed by
configDownload
. Parameters such
as the switch's name and IP address (lines in the configuration file that begin with “boot”) are ignored.
Security parameters (lines in the configuration file that begin with “sec”), such as secure mode setting and
version stamp, are ignored.
For more detailed information on security, see ”
Configuring standard security features ” on page 113.
Troubleshooting configuration download
If the configuration download fails, check that these conditions are true:
•
If you did not disable the switch, you must do so for some configuration downloads (see ” Configuration
download without disabling a switch ” on page 120).
• The host name is known to the switch.
•
The host IP address can be contacted.
• You have permission on the host to perform configuration download.
•
The configuration file you are trying to download exists on the host.
• The configuration file you are trying to download is a switch configuration file.
• If you selected the (default) FTP protocol, the FTP server is running on the host;
• The configuration file uses correct syntax.
If for some reason the switch reboots during the configuration download, issue the command again.
There may be some restrictions if you are using Admin Domains. See ”
Managing administrative domains ”
on page 157 for details.
