Maintenance Commands
The maintenance commands allow you to perform maintenance-related
tasks on the Dominion SX firmware:
 backup
 cleareventlog
 factoryreset
 firmware
 logoff
 reboot
 restore
 sendeventlog
 upgrade
 upgradehistory
 upgradestatus
 userlist
 vieweventlog
Note: All operations that normally trigger a reboot or prompt the user for
feedbacks are now added a new parameter named force. This force
parameter prevents reboot, prompting or both from taking place until all
configurations are completed. The commands that now have a force
parameter are: ethernetfilover (see "Ethernetfailover
Command" on page 147), interface (see "Interface Command" on
page 147), name (see "Name Command" on page 148), ports (see
"Ports Command" on page 149), factoryreset (see
"Factoryreset Command" on page 180) and reboot (see "Reboot
Command" on page 182).
Backup Command
The backup command makes a copy of the Dominion SX configuration
and writes the backup onto an ftp server. The current Dominion SX
configuration is saved to the computer with the IP set in the command
parameters in an encrypted format. All device settings except network
settings are stored in the file, wh can be recovered if a Restore operation
becomes necessary.
