Description:

This article describes how the configuration of a LANCOM managed switch can be exported via SCP (Secure Copy). This can be used as a foundation for an automated switch configuration backup.

The procedure to export the configuration of an XS series switch via the webinterface is described in this Knowledge Base article.

The procedure to export the configuration of an XS series switch via LANconfig is described in this Knowledge Base article.



Requirements:

  • LANCOM managed switch of the following series:
    • GS-23xx 
    • GS-3xxx
    • XS-51xx
  • SSH must be active on the switch 
  • SCP client (e.g. PSCP)

PSCP can be downloaded separately, but it is also included in the "Windows Installer" package.



Procedure:

The procedure is basically the same for all switch types. As the different switch series use different file formats for the configuration files, this has to be taken into consideration for the file extension.


GS-23xx series:

1) Start an instance of the Windows command line and go the menu where the tool PSCP is saved. If you installed the PuTTY utilities via the "Windows Installer" package, PSCP can also be run directly.

2) Enter the command in the format pscp -P 22 pw <password> -scp <user name>@<IP address>:config C:\Temp\<file name>.xml to save the configuration file in the folder C:\Temp.

In this example the command pscp -P 22 -pw password -scp admin@192.168.45.250:config C:\Temp\configuration.xml was used.

 

The parameter -P 22 makes sure, that the port 22 is used for the SSH connection. If you are using another port it has to be modified accordingly. The parameter -P has to be capitalized.

If you omit the destination folder and only specify the file name (e.g. configuration.xml), the file is saved in the folder, from where PSCP is invoked. 

The configuration file of a GS-23xx series switch has to be saved as XML file.


GS-3xx series:

1) Start an instance of the Windows command line and go the menu where the tool PSCP is saved. If you installed the PuTTY utilities via the "Windows Installer" package, PSCP can also be run directly.

2) Enter the command in the format pscp -P 22 pw <password> -scp <user name>@<IP address>:config C:\Temp\<file name>.lcfsx to save the configuration file in the folder C:\Temp.

In this example the command pscp -P 22 -pw Password123 -scp admin@192.168.45.47:config C:\Temp\configuration.lcfsx was used.

 

The parameter -P 22 makes sure, that the port 22 is used for the SSH connection. If you are using another port it has to be modified accordingly. The parameter -P has to be capitalized.

If you omit the destination folder and only specify the file name (e.g. configuration.lcfsx), the file is saved in the folder, from where PSCP is invoked. 

The configuration file of a GS-3xxx series switch has to be saved as lcfsx file.


XS-51xx series:

1) Start an instance of the Windows command line and go the menu where the tool PSCP is saved. If you installed the PuTTY utilities via the "Windows Installer" package, PSCP can also be run directly.

2) Enter the command in the format pscp -P 22 pw <password> -scp <user name>@<IP address>:config C:\Temp\<file name>.cfg to save the configuration file in the folder C:\Users\...\Documents.

In this example the command pscp -P 22 -pw Test12345 -scp admin@172.23.56.224:config C:\Users\...\Documents\configuration.cfg was used.

The parameter -P 22 makes sure, that the port 22 is used for the SSH connection. If you are using another port it has to be modified accordingly. The parameter -P has to be capitalized.

If you omit the destination folder and only specify the file name (e.g. configuration.cfg), the file is saved in the folder, from where PSCP is invoked. 

The configuration file of an XS-51xx series switch has to be saved as cfg file.
