Storing and Retrieving Configuration Parameters
6-25
read from the flash memory. The CoreBuilder 7000 assumes that the user
wants to reboot the switch as soon as possible to activate the new
configuration parameters. Therefore, subsequent to a configuration
download, all LMA and SNMP set operations are blocked until the next
reboot – except for the configuration upload/download and reboot
operations.
It is recommended, therefore, to perform a configuration download only
when you are ready to reboot and activate the new parameters.
Cards should not be “hot swapped” after a configuration download until
after the next reboot.
Uploading the
Configuration of a
Card
To store (upload) the configuration of a card installed in the CoreBuilder
chassis from flash memory to disk, first make sure that the switch is
connected to the TFTP server and that it is in single-IP mode and then
perform the following steps:
1 Perform the LMA menu command:
(1) SYS\ (3) LOA \(6) TCU
2 The LMA automatically presents you with a list of the installed cards
whose configuration you can upload to disk, for example:
Module Types:
1<Switch module 7000>
2<Slot 3 - 7600>
3<Slot 4 - 7600>
4<Slot 5 - 7400>
5<Slot 6 - 7200>
Select Module: 1
Select the appropriate card from the list—for example, if you want to
upload the configuration of the active switch card, select 1 from the
menu.
3 The types of configuration data you can upload are displayed as follows.
File Types:
1<All>
2<Box Profile>
3<ATM Addresses>
4<PNNI Configuration>
5<LANE Security>
6<PVC Connections>
7<LECS Topology>
8<LECS Order List>
