Download an AP Configuration File from your TFTP Server
Start the Solarwinds TFTP program (available on the installation CD), and click on the Security tab to verify that the TFTP
server is configured to both transmit and receive files. (Note that TFTP programs other than Solarwinds may also require
this setting.) Then enter the following commands:
[Device-Name]>set tftpfilename <file name> tftpfiletype config
tftpipaddr <IP address of your TFTP server>
[Device-Name]>show tftp (to ensure the filename, file type, and the IP address are correct)
[Device-Name]>download *
[Device-Name]>reboot 0
After following the complete process (above) once, you can download a file of the same name (so long as all the other
parameters are the same), with the following command:
[Device-Name]>download *
Backup your AP Configuration File
Start the Solarwinds TFTP program (available on the installation CD), and click on the Security tab to verify that the TFTP
server is configured to both transmit and receive files. (Note that TFTP programs other than Solarwinds may also require
this setting.) Then enter the following commands:
[Device-Name]>upload <TFTP Server IP address> <tftpfilename (such as “config.sys”)> config
[Device-Name]>show tftp (to ensure the filename, file type, and the IP address are correct)
After setting the TFTP parameters, you can backup your current file (so long as all the other parameters are the same),
with the following command:
[Device-Name]>upload *
