Figure 3-14. Setting the Start-up Configuration File
CLI – Enter the IP address of the TFTP server, specify the source file on the server,
set the startup file name on the switch, and then restart the switch.
If you download the startup configuration file under a new file name, you can set this
file as the startup file at a later time, and then restart the switch.
Console Port Settings
You can access the onboard configuration program by attaching a VT100
compatible device to the switch’s serial console port. Management access through
the console port is controlled by various parameters, including a password, timeouts,
and basic communication settings. These parameters can be configured via the
Web or CLI interface.
