Description
Using the download config command, you can download the configuration file via
the Console port of the router.
You should use the command under the guidance of a technical support engineer,
and the configuration file of the router should be edited off-line by technical or senior
maintenance personnel.
While editing the configuration file, please note:
The configuration file of the router is composed of commands.
Pressing the Enter key or adding a line feed indicates the end of a command. Do
not press the Enter key or add a new line sign in the middle of a command line.
A comment can be inserted between two command lines and begins with "!".
End is used as the terminator to terminate the whole configuration file.
You load the configuration file via the Send Binary File function of the terminal
simulator. Before sending a configuration file to the router, please make sure that:
The download config command is executed, and the router is waiting for
loading. Now in the window of the terminal simulator, you can see that the router
regularly sends the C character to the terminal simulator.
Xmodem/CRC is set as the binary transmission protocol for the terminal
simulator.
The correct configuration file transfer has been selected.
After you load the configuration file, you must reboot the router before the
configuration file takes effect. If you have downloaded the wrong configuration file, the
system will initialize by using the default parameters after rebooting. You can erase
the wrong configuration file with the delete command or just reload the file.
In the 3Com series of routers, the configuration file that you load will be stored in the
media specified by the configfile command, the default media is NVRAM.
