Import Configuration
The
Import Configuration
function is used to import an entire configuration from a text file to
the EDS. This utility can be used to transfer the configuration from one EDS to another, by first
using the Export Configuration function (described in the previous section) to save a switch
configuration to a file, and then using the Import Configuration function. Perform the following
steps to import a configuration:
1.
Highlight the server (from the Moxa EtherDevice Switch list in the Configurator window’s
left pane), and then click the
Import
toolbar icon
, or select
Import Configuration
from
the
Configuration
menu.
2.
Use the
Open
window to navigate to the text file that contains the desired configuration. Once
the file is selected, click
Open
to initiate the import procedure.
3.
The
Setup Configuration
window will be displayed, with a special note attached at the
bottom. Parameters that have been changed will be activated with a checkmark. You may
make more changes if necessary, and then click
OK
to accept the changes.
