For detailed information on the bulk configuration requirements, see
Bulk Configuration
(on page 262).
To save the configuration via SCP:
1. Type the following SCP command and press Enter.
scp <user name>@<device ip>:/bulk_config.txt
<user name> is the "admin" or any user profile with Administrator Privileges.
<device ip>
is the IP address or hostname of the Legrand PDU whose configuration you want to
save.
2. Type the user password when prompted.
3. The system saves the configuration from the Legrand PDU to a file named "bulk_config.txt."
To copy the configuration via SCP:
1. Type the following SCP command and press Enter.
scp bulk_config.txt <user name>@<device ip>:/bulk_restore
<user name> is the "admin" or any user profile with Administrator Privileges
<device ip>
is the IP address of the Legrand PDU whose configuration you want to copy.
2. Type the user password when prompted.
3. The system copies the configuration included in the file "bulk_config.txt" to another Legrand PDU, and
displays the following message.
Starting restore operation. The connection will be closed now.
SCP examples:
Save operation:
scp admin@192.168.87.50:/bulk_config.txt
Copy operation:
scp bulk_config.txt admin@192.168.87.47:/bulk_restore
Windows PSCP commands:
PSCP in Windows works in a similar way to the SCP.
Save operation:
pscp <user name>@<device ip>:/bulk_config.txt
Copy operation:
pscp bulk_config.txt <user name>@<device ip>:/bulk_restore
Alternative of bulk configuration via SCP:
Both the methods of uploading 'bulk configuration' file or 'raw configuration' file via SCP can serve the
purpose of bulk configuration. The only difference is that you can configure
device-specific
settings with the
upload of raw configuration but not with the 'bulk configuration' file.

Backup and Restore via SCP
To back up ALL settings of a Legrand PDU, including device-specific settings, you should perform the
backup operation instead of the bulk configuration.
You can restore all settings to previous ones after a backup file is available.
To back up the settings via SCP:
1. Type the following SCP command and press Enter.
