Figure 7-7: Upload Configuration
It is possible to upload a file from the web browser to all the files on the switch, except default-config
which is read-only. Select the file to upload, select the destination file on the target, then click Upload
Configuration. If the destination is running config, the file will be applied to the switch configuration.
This can be done in two ways:
•
Replace mode: The current configuration is fully replaced with the configuration in the uploaded
file.
•
Merge mode: The uploaded file is merged into running-config.
If the flash file system is full (i.e., contains default-config and 32 other files, usually including startup-
config), it is not possible to create new files. Instead, an existing file must be overwritten or another
file must be deleted.
Activate
It is possible to activate any of the configuration files present on the switch, except for running-config
which represents the currently active configuration.
Select the file to activate and click Activate Configuration. This will initiate the process of completely
replacing the existing configuration with that of the selected file.

Delete
It is possible to delete any of the writable files stored in flash, including startup-config. If this is done
and the switch is rebooted without a prior Save operation, this effectively resets the switch to default
configuration.
