J-series Restore
If you have the File Management option installed, this panel configures restoration on (non-E-
Series) J-series devices.
Figure 13-1. Restore Type
NOTE:
If you select “snapshot” as part of a file management action, you must have external media, like a USB
drive, plugged into the device, or an error appears.
This panel has two sets of radio buttons that let you configure the type of restoration you want to
do.
Specify the load operation type
- Merge —Merges the currently selected configuration file with the device’s configuration.
Statements in the selection replace any on the device when they differ. Otherwise, this
selection simply adds configuration statements to the device.
-
Override —Discards the configuration on the device, replacing it with the selected configuration
file.
-
Replace —Replaces any currently contradicted by the current selection. Items that do not differ
in the restore selection, item-by-item, remain the same.
-
Update —Changes the current configuration with a patch file.
Specify the file format
- Text —Configuration statements are formatted as ASCII text. They use newline characters, tabs,
braces, brackets and white space to indicate hierarchical relationships. This is the format used
in configuration files stored on the routing platform and displayed by the command line show
configuration.
-
XML —Configuration statements consist of JUNOScript tag elements. These are typically
developer-created files, not configuration file backups from the device.
