Saving Configuration Changes; Firmware Version Control - Avaya G350 Administration

The Avaya Installation Wizard (Avaya IW) is a web-based installation wizard that leads the user through
the key configuration steps of a G350 installation. The Avaya IW can be used for initial configuration of
a G350 with an S8300 installed as the G350's primary (ICC) or backup (LSP) call controller. For
instructions on how to access the Avaya IW, see
instructions on how to configure the G350 using the Avaya IW, see
Avaya IW on page 249.
The Avaya Gateway Installation Wizard (GIW) is a standalone application that allows the user to perform
certain basic G350 configuration tasks. The GIW can be used for initial configuration of a G350 that does
not have an S8300 installed as either the G350's primary (ICC) or backup (LSP) call controller. For
instructions on how to access the GIW, see
how to configure the G350 using the GIW, see
You can also use the Avaya G350 Manager to configure most features of the G350. The Avaya G350
Manager is a GUI application. You can access the Avaya G350 Manager from Avaya Integrated
Management software or from a web browser. Most of the commands that are available through the G350
CLI are also available through the Avaya G350 Manager. For more information about the Avaya G350
Manager, see the Avaya G350 Manager User Guide, 650-100-709.

Saving configuration changes

When you make changes to the configuration of the Avaya G350 Media Gateway, you must save your
changes to make them permanent. The G350 has two sets of configuration information:
•
Running configuration
•
Startup configuration
The G350 operates according to the running configuration. When the G350 is reset, the G350 erases the
running configuration and loads the startup configuration as the new running configuration. When you
change the configuration of the G350, your changes affect only the running configuration. Your changes
are lost when the G350 resets if you do not save your changes.
Use the
copy running-config startup-config
G350. A copy of the running configuration becomes the new startup configuration.
You can back up either the running configuration or the startup configuration to an FTP or TFTP server
on your network. You can restore a backup copy of the configuration from the FTP or TFTP server. When
you restore the backup copy of the configuration, the backup copy becomes the new running
configuration on the G350. For more information, see
