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.
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 workstation. To edit the file, you must first 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.
For instructions on how to upload a configuration file from a switch to
your management workstation, refer to Uploading a System File on page
177. For instructions on how to download a configuration file from your
workstation back to the switch, refer to Downloading a System File on
page 171. For instructions on how to designate an active boot
configuration file, refer to Setting the Active Boot Configuration File on
page 152.
