*** CAUTION ***

This command is used to download a backed-up configuration

for a specific switch. If using a file from a different

switch, this file's configuration settings will override

any current switch settings. Downloading a configuration

file, which was uploaded from a different type of switch,

may cause this switch to fail.

A switch reboot is required for the changes to take effect.

Please make sure all the switches are disabled by

using "chassisdisable" command. Downloading configuration

to an online switch may result in some configuration not

being downloaded to that switch.

configDownload operation may take several minutes

to complete for large files.
