Copying Configuration

If you already have a switch with the desired set of features configured, controller provides an option to load the current configuration of the switch, remove unique settings like hostname, IP addresses, and so on, and copy it to one or more target switches. This procedure is applicable only if the target switches have no existing configuration.

Complete the following steps to copy configuration to one or more target switches.

  1. From the main menu, go to Network > Wired > Switches.
    The Switches page appears.
  2. Select the switch and then the Configuration tab.

    Switch Group Configuration Tab

  3. Click Copy Configuration To. This option lets you replace the entire configuration (startup-config) of the selected switch with that of a source switch.
  4. Click Get Configuration From and select the switch or group from which you want to get the configuration profile, and click OK. This option lets you replace the entire configuration of destination switches (one or more) with the configuration of the selected switch.
  5. Edit the CLI commands to remove unique settings like IP settings and hostname and click Next.
