The new format is preferred by GarrettComand GarrettCom recommends all configuration files be saved in the new format. GarrettComrecommends saving the configuration in the old format only if there are multiple Magnum 6K family ofswitches on the network and they all run different versions of MNS-6K. GarrettCom recommends toupgrade all switches to the most current release of MNS-6K.Config filesAs shown in the figure above, MNS-6K can now use the ftp, tftp or xmodem commands toupload and download information to the server running the proper services. One useful capabilityprovided in MNS-6K is the capability to export the CLI commands (as described in this manual)used to configure the switch. To do that, for example, using the tftp command, the sequence ofcommands are shown belowMagnum6K25# show ftpCurrent FTP Mode: NORMALMagnum6K25# set ftp mode=passiveFTP Set to Passive ModeMagnum6K25# show ftpCurrent FTP Mode: PASSIVEMagnum6K25# set ftp mode=normalFTP Set to Normal ModeMagnum6K25# show ftpCurrent FTP Mode: NORMALMagnum6K25# ftp put type=config ip=192.168.5.2 file=configDo you wish to export configuration file?
