General Configuration Commands
3.3.1
Apply
Any configuration change is executed upon clicking
Apply
.
The Local-Remote concept of the Web-Based Management allows configuring both local
and remote systems of the link.
The
Apply
button is available at the bottom of each configuration page (one button for
both local and remote systems).
When clicking
Apply
, the configuration changes will be sent to remote system first and
then to the local system. If multiple parameters changed on the page before clicking
Apply
, all parameters are sent in bulk to the system and then executed locally in order
to avoid losing management connection.
3.3.2
Save Configuration
Any configuration change applied should be saved using the
Save Configuration
button.
The system has two configuration banks:
1.
Running Configuration – the currently active configuration. Every time
Apply
is
clicked, the Running Configuration is updated.
2.
Startup Configuration – the configuration the system will come up with after the
next reboot. This configuration may be different than the currently active
configuration (Running Configuration).
In order to save the applied configuration changes, click
Save Configuration
so
changes will be saved to the startup configuration. If changes are not saved to the
startup configuration, they will be lost the next time the system reboots.
Save Configuration
buttons are available for local and remote systems.
3.3.3
Rollback
A safety measure that allows recovering from system configuration changes that caused
loss of communication.
When Rollback is used, a timer runs (and restarts) whenever a management (or CLI)
command is entered. In the event that no command is entered within the timeout
period, the system automatically reboots and comes up with the saved startup
configuration.
A Rollback timeout is especially recommended when configuring remote elements that
are being managed over the link.
Rollback is activated for both local and remote systems.
