Follow the steps below to reuse configuration data:
1. Save the configuration data of a configured device on your PC.
2. Load these configuration files on all other devices you want to configure in this way.
3. If individual settings are necessary for specific devices, these must be made online on the
relevant device.
Note
Configuration data has a checksum. If you change the data, you can no longer upload it to the
device.

SFTP
Loading and saving data via an SFTP server
SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) transfers the files encrypted. On this page, you configure
the access data for the SFTP server.
You can also store device data in an external file on your client PC or load such data from an
external file from the PC to the devices. This means, for example, that you can also load new
firmware from a file located on your Admin PC.
On this page, the certificates required to establish a secure VPN connection can also be loaded.
Firmware
The firmware is signed and encrypted. This ensures that only firmware created by Siemens can
be downloaded to the device.
Configuration files
Note
Configuration files and Trial mode/Automatic Save
In "Automatic Save" mode, the data is saved automatically before the configuration files
(ConfigPack and Config) are transferred.
In "Trial" mode, although the changes are adopted, they are not saved in the configuration files
(ConfigPack and Config). Use the "Write Startup Config" button on the "System >
Configuration" WBM page to save changes in the configuration files.
CLI script file
You can download existing CLI configurations (RunningCLI) and upload your own CLI scripts
(Script).
Note
The downloadable CLI script is not intended to be uploaded again unchanged.
CLI commands for saving and loading files cannot be executed with the CLI script file (Script).
