A boot configuration file contains any switch settings that differ
from the AT-S63 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-S63 Management Software Command
Line User’s Guide. The information in this menu is for viewing
purposes only.

Editing a Boot
Configuration
File
You can edit a boot configuration file using a text editor on your
management station. To edit the file, you must first upload it from the
switch to your management station. You cannot edit a boot
configuration file directly on the switch. After you edit the file, you can
download it to the switch and make it the active boot configuration file.
For instructions on how to upload a boot configuration file from a switch
to your management station, refer to ”Uploading a System File” on page
201. For instructions on how to download a boot configuration file from
your management station back to the switch, refer to ”Downloading a
System File” on page 196. For instructions on how to designate an active
boot configuration file, refer to ”Setting the Active Boot Configuration
File” on page 175.
