The purpose of the backup is primarily for systems, such as the hp StorageWorks edge
switch 2/16, where a backup is needed in order to restore to a replacement switch. You
can also use this feature for a special purpose configuration or for temporary testing of
a configuration. You cannot modify the location and file name of the saved
configuration.
NOTE: You can only restore the configuration to a switch with the same IP address.
