Copying and pasting conﬁgurations

Copying and pasting configurations

This section describes how you can cut and paste DTC board and port

conﬁgurations. This feature enables you to easily create identical conﬁgurations.

What you can copy and paste

• You can copy boards within the same DTC or from one DTC to another. You can

copy a board from one DTC type to another DTC type if the board is compatible

with both DTCs (see “Copying and pasting a board or port” on page 120).

• You can copy ports from one board to another board on the same DTC or to a

board on another DTC.

• CPU/LAN or LAN configurations cannot be copied because the fields (DTC

Node Name, DTC LAN Address, and DTC IP Address) must be unique for

each DTC.

• Before you can paste a configuration to a DTC, the DTC must already have been

added to your list of DTCs (using the Add DTC Configuration screen).

Note If an IP address has been configured for ports, be careful when you copy and paste a

board or port onto other DTCs. Remember to change the IP addresses for the ports

on the different DTCs.
