Downloading the Configuration File
You use FTP to download the configdata file to your workstation for safe keeping
and to upload the file back to the switch for the restore function. To download the
configdata file, open an FTP session on the switch and login with the account
name images and password images. Transfer the file in binary mode with the Get
command as shown in the following example:
>ftp ip_address
user:images
password: images
ftp>bin
ftp>get configdata
xxxxx bytes sent in xx secs.
ftp>quit
You should rename the configdata file on your workstation with the switch name
and date, config_switch_169_10112003, for example.
