Save configuration except IP Address feature is almost the same with Save configuration, except the IP address will not be
saved.
You can save/view or load the switch configuration. The configuration file is in XML format with a hierarchy of tags:
Header tags:
Section tags:
Module tags:
Group tags:
Parameter tags:
Configuration parameters are represented as attribute values. When saving the configuration from the switch, the entire
configuration including syntax descriptions is included in the file. The file may then be modified using an editor and loaded to a
Managed Switch.
The examples below show a small configuration file only including configuration of the MAC address age time and the learning
mode per port. When loading this file, only the included parameters will be changed. This means that the age time will be set to
200 and the learn mode will be set to automatic.
