Detailed procedures
Use the following procedures to retrieve the settings of one Automatic
Transfer Switch and export them to one or more other Automatic Transfer
Switches.
Retrieving. To set up and retrieve an .ini file to export:
1. Configure an Automatic Transfer Switch with the settings you want to
export.
2. Use FTP to retrieve the file config.ini from the Automatic Transfer
Switch you configured:
a. Open a connection to the Automatic Transfer Switch, using its IP
Address. For example:
ftp> open 158.165.2.132
b. Log on, using the Administrator user name and password configured
for the Automatic Transfer Switch.
c. Retrieve the config.ini file containing the Automatic Transfer
Switch’s current settings:
ftp> get config.ini
The file is written to the folder from which you launched FTP.
To avoid errors, configure the Automatic Transfer Switch by
using its Web interface or control console whenever
possible. Directly editing the .ini file risks introducing errors.
