Configuration File Transfer Using The Console Port - HP ProCurve 7000dl Series Basic Management And Configuration Manual

Overview
Managing Configuration Files Using a Text Editor
1-78
If you do not want the base router to use the base configuration, you should
save the base configuration as a .cfg or .txt file. From the enable mode
context, enter:
ProCurve# copy flash running-config <destination location> <destination filename>
If you entered write memory and are running the AutoSynch function, the
configuration is saved as the startup-config file on the flash and compact flash
memories. If you have a compact flash card but are not running the AutoSynch
function, this command will save the configuration as startup-config on the
compact flash card. If you do not have a compact flash card in your router,
the file is saved in internal flash as the startup-config file.

Configuration File Transfer Using the Console Port

In order to complete these steps, you must establish a console session with
the ProCurve Secure Router.
1. Create a base configuration.
Use either the router's factory defaults or another router's configuration
as a base. This can be the contents of the startup-config file or the current
running-configuration. Display this configuration from the enable mode
context.
Syntax: show file <location> <filename>
ProCurve# show file cflash startup-config
or
ProCurve# show running-config verbose
2. Copy the text.
Use your mouse to highlight the resulting display in the terminal session
window. Copy this text either by pressing
and clicking Copy, or by clicking Edit > Copy in the window.
Paste the copied text into a text editor program such as Notepad.
3. Edit the configuration.
Change the configuration as needed. Adjust IP addresses, hostnames, and
other settings.
