Local File: The ES9528 acts as the file server in Windows XP. Other Windows
operating systems must use the TFTP method. This mode is only provided by the
web user interface as the backup and restore functions are not supported by the CLI.
For procedures, see

Backup the Configuration - Local File Method

.

TFTP Server: The ES9528 acts as a TFTP client. This mode can be used in both the
CLI and web user interface. For procedures, see

Backup the Configuration - TFTP

Server Method

.

Note: Pointing to the wrong file causes the entire configuration to be skipped.

The ES7510 provides a default configuration file in the ES7510. To load the default configuration file,
you can use the Reset on the

Factory Defaults

page on

Page 57

or the Reload command in the CLI

(

Page 140

).

You can use the CLI to view the latest settings running in the ES7510. The information are the
settings you have configured but have not yet saved to the flash. The settings must be saved to the
flash in order to work after a power recycle. Use the running-config command to view the
configuration file, see

Show Running Configuration

on Page 140.

After you save the running-config to flash, the new settings are kept and work after the power is
cycled. Use the show startup-config to view it in the CLI. The Backup command can only backup
the configuration file to your PC or TFTP server.
