Configuration Files
If you need to roll back configuration changes, you can use a saved
version to roll back the system software image and configuration files to
a known state. Before you can save a version of a network plan, you need
to deploy and save the network plan. Versions of network plans are saved
in the db/xml/versions directory in the 3WXM installation directory.
After you have saved a version of a network plan, the version appears in
the list of network plans available to open. If you open a version of a
network plan, you are asked whether you want to deploy it or open it.
When the version is open, you see its version name in the title bar of the
main 3WXM window.
To save a version of a network plan
1 Select File > Save As.
2 Type a name for the plan. Make the name descriptive. For example, name
the plan HappyVille_4_0_1.
3 Click Next. The status of the saving process appears.
4 Click Finish.
Saving Network Plans Automatically By default, 3WXM uses the
autosave feature to automatically save changes to a network plan at
regular intervals while you are working.
To view or modify backup settings, select Tools > 3WXM Services
Backup/Restore. The Backup/Restore dialog appears.
You can import or export switch configuration files in Extensible Markup
Language (XML) format.
The import option enables you to create a WX switch in the network
plan by importing configuration files in Extensible Markup Language
(XML) format. You also can update the configuration of a switch that
is already in the plan.
The export option enables you to save a switch's configuration to an
XML file. After exporting a WX configuration to an XML file, you can
import it to another instance of 3WXM or use it as a backup copy.
If you import a configuration containing information that an older version
of 3WXM or MSS does not support, the information is ignored when the
configuration is imported.
