Downloading an AT-S62 Configuration File Switch to Switch
This procedure downloads a boot configuration file from the master
AT-8524M switch to another AT-8524M switch in an enhanced stack. The
switch where you download the file will mark it as the active boot
configuration file, and will automatically reset. Once the reset is
complete, the switch will be operating with the parameter settings
contained in the downloaded configuration file. For an explanation of
configuration files, refer to Working with Boot Configuration Files on
page 149.
Note
This procedure can be performed from a local or Telnet
management session.
Note
Once a configuration file has been downloaded onto a switch with
this procedure, the unit automatically resets. Some network traffic
may be lost while the switch reloads its operating software.
To download a boot configuration file on the master switch to another
switch in an enhanced stack, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type 8 to select Enhanced Stacking.
The Enhanced Stacking menu is shown in Figure 5 on page 53.

Note
The “2 - Stacking Services” selection is available only on master
switches.
The Stacking Services menu is shown in Figure 6 on page 54.
3. Type 1 to select Get/Refresh List of Switches. The master switch polls
the network for all enhanced stacking switches in the subnet and
displays the switches in the Stacking Services menu.
4. Type 5 to select Download Configuration.
The following prompt is displayed:
Enter the configuration file name ->
