The application generates a configuration file which can be transferred to the device using a USB drive. A PDF report of the configuration can be generated to document the configuration of a particular switch. The application is portable and does not require any installation.


Read current configuration in a switch

To view the current configuration running in the switch, user needs to manually create a text file named "ShowRunningConfiguration.txt". This manually created file, can be empty and must be placed in the USB root folder. During a reboot with plugged USB the switch generates a "Running_Config.txt" file which is stored on the USB drive. The generated configuration file can be read by the application.
