A configuration file contains those switch settings that differ from
the AT-S62 default values. The parameter settings are shown in
their command line equivalents. The switch executes the
commands in the boot configuration file to configure its settings
when it is reset or power cycled. For information on command line
commands, refer to the AT-S62 Command Line User’s Guide.

File
You can edit a boot configuration file using a text editor on your
management workstation. To edit a file, you must upload it from the
switch to your management workstation. You cannot edit a boot
configuration file directly on the switch. Once you have edited the file,
you can download it back to the switch and make it the active boot
configuration file.
