Maintain Restore
Use the Maintain==>Restore to enter configuration values captured in a backed up file into the configuration of one or more INA modules. If the additional INA module is already configured, the values of the backed up file overwrite the existing configuration. To edit the backed up file, use NotePad or any simple editor.
To erase all or part of a configuration, use the ComOS erase configuration command from the command line interface (INA==>Command). (See the PortMaster Command Line Reference).
Use Maintain==>Back Up to capture configuration values in one or more PMVision panels for one or more INA modules to an ASCII file.
The back up and restore functions are useful for the following:
Backing up existing configurations to ensure against data loss
Cloning a configuration from one INA module to another
Keeping configurations that have been useful for conditions that have changed but can recur.
