newbie - copy config to 806 router

[admin_2]

hi folks

i have been playing around with an 806 router and have it doing what i want to at the moment. i am only a newbie so have been erasing/adding lines through command console.

question i have is

can i copy this config to a text file

and then import to another 806 i will be buying.

i don't see anything in the write or copy commands for this

it will save me alot of time obviously as i might have to do a good few of these

run a tftp server (plenty of freebies around) then type

copy running-config tftp:

(type in the ip[ address where TFTP is running)

or just sh conf in your terminal windows

then copy and paste into a text file!

tx for that

i can get config into a txt file

is there no easy way to get it back without tftp

depending on what you're using as terminal, you should be able to select the config text in the textfile and then (after entering conf t on the router) just selecting paste in the terminal.

remember to specify "no shutdown" for interfaces if they're shutdown (won't be in the config).

excellent dgj

copy + paste in conf t worked a treat

no shutdown ???

will a reset do instead

[dgj]

if you have a config in a text file, add no shutdown underneath any interface entries...

eg

interface Ethernet0

ip address w.x.y.z 255.255.255.0

no shutdown
