Initiating Save/Restore Operations
The Save/Restore command is available from the Main menu.
Figure 3-6 shows the Configuration Save/Restore menu, available from the Main
menu.
Methods of Saving/Restoring
You can save or restore CMEM contents using:
A computer running Kermit via a commercial communication package
A TFTP server over a LAN connection
Kermit is the recommended procedure, and will be the only one discussed in this
section. TFTP is discussed in the full 6500 Series documentation.
Saving and Restoring Configurations Using Kermit
You can save and restore CMEM contents to a PC running terminal emulation
from a communications program such as Crosstalk or ProComm. These programs
support the Kermit file transfer protocol.
Before You Begin
You need to access the CTP as described in the "Accessing the Control Port and
Main Menu" section on page -2.
The following table describes how to save a configuration using Kermit. File sizes
for MEM files are approximately 4-20K, depending upon the complexity of the
configuration.
