CHAPTER 4 • WEB-BASED MANAGEMENT

The Load the last stored configuration option can be used to reload the last configuration

saved on the device or the PC. All modifications made to the configuration since it was last

saved will be lost (see Figure 4.14).

Figure 4.14 – Load the last stored configuration Setting

When a configuration is uploaded from the managed switch to a PC, the last saved version

is transmitted. If you want to transmit the active configuration, first save it again (Save cur-

rent configuration function).

When a configuration is downloaded from a PC to a managed switch, the new configura-

tion is only activated once the switch has been reset.

Note

The use of a configuration file does not affect an existing (old) password.

Configuration using a configuration file is used when replacing devices. To duplicate de-

vices using a configuration file, observe the following:

˽

Establish a point-to-point connection between a managed switch and the management

station.

˽

Load the configuration file to the switch.

˽

Reset the switch.

˽

Adjust the IP parameters.

˽

Save the configuration (Save current configuration function).

The duplicated switch can now be operated in the network using the adjusted IP param-

eters.

To trigger a reboot via the Web interface, enter a valid password. Save the configuration be-

forehand, so that configuration modifications are retained or can be activated via a restart.

Ports Menu

The Ports menu is an overview of all available ports (see Figure 4.15). Clicking on the rel-

evant port number opens a port-specific page (Port Configuration).
