Behavior
ExtremeWare XOS supports saving a configuration file into any named file and
supports more than two saved configurations.
For example, you can download a configuration file from a network TFTP
server and save that file as primary, secondary, or with a user-defined name.
You also select where to save the configuration: primary or secondary
partition, or another space.
The file names primary and secondary exist for backward compatibility with
ExtremeWare.
