You can transfer the following data from external files to the device:
● The configuration data of the device
● The firmware of the device
● The client certificate (only for clients and access points in client mode)
● The server certificate (only for clients and access points in client mode)

Note
When you download the configuration data to the device, it is restarted so that the new data
is adopted correctly. The restart takes place automatically during the loading of HTTP and
TFTP. The device can no longer be reached using the old IP address if the downloaded
configuration data contains a new IP address.
Note
For SCALANCE W788-xPRO/RR and W74x-1PRO/RR only
As of firmware version V3.0, the file with the configuration data of the AP also includes the
following information
• Version of the configuration file
• Firmware version with which this configuration file was created
• Order number (MLFB) of the device with which the configuration file was created
It is essential that the configuration on the C-PLUG was generated with a firmware version ≤
the firmware version on the destination device.
Example:
Configuration files created with a device with firmware V2.4 or older can be loaded without
problems on devices with firmware version V3.0 (or V3.2 on the W786-xPRO and V3.3 on
the W784-1xx/W74x-1). Configuration files generated with a device with firmware version
V3.0 (or 3.2 or 3.3), cannot, however, be loaded on devices with firmware version V2.4 or
older.
Reusing configuration data
Saving and reading in configuration data reduces the effort if several devices have the same
configuration and when IP addresses are obtained over DHCP. Save the configuration data
on a PC after you have configured a SCALANCE W-700. Download this file to all other
