2 - Restore
Restores a configuration to the bridge/router that was previously saved to a disk file with the Dump command.
Note that the Restore will only restore those configuration settings that were changed from the default settings at the
time the Dump was performed; Restore does not overwrite the entire configuration. Any changes made since the Dump
was performed will not be overwritten and will thus remain in effect after the restore. It is strongly recommended that
you do a full reset (under the Diagnostics menu) before performing a Restore to be certain that the system is restored to
the state it was in at the time of the Dump. After a full reset, the IP address of the router must be re-entered.
Considerations:
The terminal-emulation package selected should have the capability to pace the loading of commands into the
bridge/router. This may be done through the setting of a delay timer (character or line pacing) or a wait for the
echo of the character before transmitting the next character.
The pacing function is commonly available, although pacing procedures will vary with each emulation package.
The Load option should not be used during a connection to another bridge/router.
Procedures for performing a Configuration Load:
1)
Prepare the PC to transfer the configuration file.
2)
Execute the Load command.
Confirmation is required. Enter "yes" to proceed.
3)
Send the file from the PC to the router.
4)
When the transfer is complete, the configuration will have been restored to the bridge/router.
