Managing Configuration Files Using a Text Editor

Managing Configuration Files Using a
Text Editor
Configuration files can be adjusted to each router's needs using your com-
puter's text editor. This allows you to set up a configuration on one router,
save it to a file, and edit it for installation on another router.
ProCurve Secure router configuration files are robust. If you miskey a com-
mand or make a mistake in the text editor, the router will simply ignore the
mistake and use the default settings. If any necessary command is missing,
the router will substitute the default. Problem commands will trigger an error
message during bootup.
It is not necessary to re-edit the configuration in a text editor to repair a
problem; simply enter the pertinent command in the CLI. View the error
messages displayed during bootup to determine which command is faulty.
