Loading a Switch Configuration (config/sys/cfgload)
This command loads switch configuration settings from a default configuration file. In order to load the
new default configuration, you must access the CLI through the serial interface (RS-232 port) and a
serial terminal emulation program, such as HyperTerminal.
NOTE: The HyperTerminal session’s baud rate should be set to 115200 for Xmodem transfers. To
configure the baud setting, click File > Properties. Under the Settings tab, click Configure and set the
bits per second to 115200.
If a connection to the switch is already established, disconnect from the switch before changing the baud
setting.
To load switch configuration settings:
1. Connect to the switch through the serial interface. See “Connecting through a Serial
Interface” on page 5.
2. From the System Configuration menu (config/sys), type cfgload and press E
NTER.
A message is displayed confirming the replacement of the current configuration.
