5.4 Configuration

5.4.1 Save

You can save/view or load the switch configuration. The configuration file is in XML format with a hierarchy
of tags:
Header tags: <?xml version="1.0"?> and <configuration>. These tags are mandatory and must be present
at the beginning of the file.
Section tags: <platform>, <global> and <switch>. The platform section must be the first section tag and this
section must include the correct platform ID and version. The global section is optional and includes
configuration which is not related to specific switch ports. The switch section is optional and includes
configuration which is related to specific switch ports.
Module tags: <ip>, <mac>, <port> etc. These tags identify a module controlling specific parts of the
configuration.
Group tags: <port_table>, <vlan_table> etc. These tags identify a group of parameters, typically a table.
Parameter tags: <mode>, <entry> etc. These tags identify parameters for the specific section, module and
group. The <entry> tag is used for table entries.
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 switch.
The example below shows 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.
