Working with MPX200 router configurations

management tasks include modifying configurations, backing up configurations, and restoring

• The "set mgmt
• The "show mgmt

• The "set iSCSI
• The "show iSCSI

Saving and restoring router configurations

Saving and restoring a configuration helps protect your work. You can also use a saved configuration
as a template for configuring other routers.
Persistent data consists of system settings, VPG settings, LUN mappings, discovered FC targets, and
discovered iSCSI initiators. To save a blade's configuration and persistent data:
1. Generate a file (HP_StorageWorks_MPX200_FRU.bin) containing the saved data by entering
the fru save CLI command.
This command stores the file locally on the router in an FTP directory.
2. Transfer the saved data from the router to a workstation by executing an FTP utility on a
workstation.
The following example shows an FTP transfer to get the saved router configuration data:
c:\> ftp 172.17.137.102
Connected to 172.17.137.102.
