4: Configuration Using XML
EDS1100/2100 Command Reference

allow for providing root and enable level passwords so that this can also be done at the
password prompt.
Web browser—Web Manager can be used to import and export an XCR to the device server
file system. It can also be used to import an XCR from an external source such as your local
hard drive.
FTP—The device server FTP server can export and import XCRs when an FTP get or put
command on the filename eds_x100.xcr is requested. On export (FTP get of eds_x100.xcr),
the FTP server obtains the current XCR from Evolution OS™ and sends it as a file. On import
(FTP put of eds_x100.xcr), the FTP server processes the file by sending it directly to the XML
engine. In both cases the device server filesystem is not accessed. The file eds_x100.xcr is
not read from or written to the file system. See FTP in the
EDS1100/2100 User Guide
.
TFTP—TFTP supports XCR importing. Due to limited security capabilities of TFTP, the option
is disabled by default.
Best Practices
You can import or export an entire XCR, or just a portion of it, by specifying the group name and/or
group instances. In the examples below, import and export operations are performed from the CLI
on the local filesystem and require a XCR on the local filesystem. The Web Manager provides the
same functionality.
Caution:
Using Microsoft Word to edit and save an XCR will change the format of
the file and make it incompatible with Evolution OS. This is true even if
the file is saved as Plain Text (.txt) or an XML Document (.xml). Notepad,
a third party text editor, or a specialized XML editor should be used
instead.
Importing
The following syntax can be used to import configurations from a file:
xcr import <file>
xcr import <file> <groups and/or group:instances>
The first line imports all groups specified in the XML config record named in
<file>
. Any filename
is valid, and the file name and extension are not important.
Caution:
The filename eds_x100.xcr is not acceptable, because performing a FTP
get on that name produces the current configuration and does not
perform an FTP from the filesystem. Also, the filename eds_x100.xsr is
not acceptable, because performing an FTP get on that name produces
the current status and does not get anything from the filesystem.
In the second line:
Instance follows group with a colon (see the third example on the next page).
Multiple groups are separated with a comma.
Any white space requires the list of groups to be quoted.
Only the named groups get imported, even if the XCR contains additional XCR groups.
The following syntax can be used to export configurations to a file on the device server’s file
system:
