Loading and saving data via HTTP
The WBM allows you to store device data in an external file on your client PC or to load such
data from an external file from the client PC to the devices. This means, for example, that
you can also load new firmware from a file located on your client PC.
Note
This WBM page is available both for connections using HTTP and for connections using
HTTPS.
Firmware
The firmware is signed and encrypted. This ensures that only firmware created by Siemens
can be downloaded to the device.
Note
Incompatibility with predecessor firmware versions
During the installation of a previous version, the configuration data can be lost. In this case,
the device starts up with the factory settings after the firmware has been installed.
Configuration files
Note
Configuration files and trial mode/Automatic Save mode
In Automatic Save mode, the data is saved automatically before the configuration files
(ConfigPack and Config) are transferred.
In Trial mode, although the changes are adopted, they are not saved in the configuration
files (ConfigPack and Config). Use the "Write Startup Config" button on the "System >
Configuration" WBM page to save changes in the configuration files.
CLI script file
You can download existing CLI configurations (RunningCLI) and upload your own CLI scripts
(Script).
Note
The downloadable CLI script is not intended to be uploaded again unchanged.
