Restoring the Configuration File
The restore operation begins with FTP to upload the configuration file from the
workstation to the switch, then finishes with a Telnet session and the Config
Restore command. To upload the configuration file, config_switch_169_10112003
in this case, open and FTP session with account name images and password
images. Transfer the file in binary mode with the Put command as shown:
ftp ip_address
user: images
password: images
ftp> bin
ftp> put config_switch_169_10112003 configdata
Local file config_switch_169_10112003
Remote file configdata
ftp>quit
The restore process replaces all configuration information on the switch and
afterwards the switch is automatically reset. If the restore process changes the IP
address, all management sessions are terminated. Use the Set Setup System
command to return the IP configuration to the values you want. To restore the
switch, open a Telnet session (a new IP address may be required), then enter the
Config Restore command from within an Admin session as shown:
SANbox #> admin start
SANbox (admin) #> config restore
The switch will be reset after restoring the configuration.
