Configuration Menu 159
Restoring the active switch configuration
Command: /cfg/gtcfg <FTP/TFTP server> <filename>
When the gtcfg command is used, the active configuration will be replaced with the commands found in the specified
configuration file. The file can contain a full switch configuration or a partial configuration. The configuration loaded
using gtcfg is not activated until the apply command is used. If the apply command is found in the configuration script
file loaded using this command, the apply action will be performed automatically.
To start the switch configuration download, at the Configuration# prompt, enter:
Configuration# gtcfg <FTP/TFTP server> <filename>
Where <FTP/TFTP server> is the FTP/TFTP server IP address or hostname and <filename> is the name of the target
script configuration file.
NOTE: The switch supports three configuration files: active, backup, and factory. See the “Selecting a
configuration block” section in the “Boot Options Menu” chapter for information on how to set which
configuration file to use upon boot up.
