Backing up your configuration parameters
The 6511RC Matrix Switch provides Import/Export functions that enable you to back up
(export)
and restore
(i
mport)
your Matrix Switch’s configuration parameters against possible failure. Should your Matrix Switch
ever need replacing, a previously saved copy of your
(exported)
configuration file can quickly be loaded
(imported)
into a replacement Matrix Switch.
Note
Import/Export functions require superuser access privileges.
Note
The parameters that will be exported are the power-up settings as they
are stored in flash memory and
may not
be the current operating
parameters. To ensure that you export the most current parameters,
go to HOME, then under
Operator Actions
, click on the
Record Cur-
rent Configuration
button.

hyperlink to dis-
play the
