Alteon OS Application Guide
To upload the configuration to the switch:
Syntax:
scp <local filename> <username>@<switch IP address>:putcfg
Example:
>> # scp ad4.cfg scpadmin@205.178.15.157:putcfg
To apply and save the configuration
The apply and save commands are still needed after the last command, or use the following
commands:
>> # scp ad4.cfg scpadmin@205.178.15.157:putcfg_apply
>> # scp ad4.cfg scpadmin@205.178.15.157:putcfg_apply_save
The diff command is automatically executed at the end of putcfg to notify the remote
client of the difference between the new and the current configurations.
putcfg_apply runs the apply command after the putcfg is done.
putcfg_apply_save saves the new configuration to the flash after putcfg_apply
is done.
The putcfg_apply and putcfg_apply_save commands are provided because
extra apply and save commands are usually required after a putcfg; however, an
SCP session is not in an interactive mode at all.
