can also set up several switches with the same or similar congurations.
To back up the conguration le, click “Backup”; choose the location for saving your conguration
le (*.tgz); then click “Save.” The conguration lename format is kcong-yyyymmdd.tgz, with
a timestamp in it.
To upload the conguration le, click “Browse” to browse to the location of the update le
(kcong-yyyymmdd.tgz); then click “Upload.” You’ll be prompted for a reboot when the upload
process is complete. Reboot to validate the new conguration.
Maintenance: Reboot
If your switch has crashed and simply clicking “Apply Settings”/“Restart Servers” has no effect
on your restoration effort, a last resort is to completely reboot the switch from the ground up
by clicking “Reboot Device.” NOTE: The reboot brought about by clicking “Reboot Device” is
a total reboot and takes longer to boot up completely, while clicking “Restart Servers” is much
quicker (just few seconds) since it restarts only the server programs on the switch.
Apply Settings: Restart Servers
Any new settings are only committed to the switch’s database by clicking “Store Settings,”
“Store” or “Store User” on each setting screen. However, just clicking any of these buttons
won’t immediately validate these new settings: You should click “Restart Servers” so that new
settings can be put into use at once. NOTE: Clicking “Restart Servers” will disconnect all current
viewer connections.
