CHAPTER 16 File Manager 16.1 Overview Configuration files define the NWA/WAC's settings. Shell scripts are files of commands that you can store on the NWA/WAC and run when you need them. You can apply a configuration file or run a shell script without the NWA/WAC restarting. You can store multiple configuration files and shell script files on the NWA/WAC. You can edit configuration files or shell scripts in a text editor and upload them to the NWA/ WAC. Configuration files use a .conf extension and shell scripts use a .zysh extension. 16.1.1 What You Can Do in this Chapter • The Configuration File screen (Section 16.2 on page 186) stores and names configuration files. You can also download and upload configuration files. • The Firmware Package screen (Section 16.3 on page 191) checks your current firmware version and uploads firmware to the NWA/WAC. • The Shell Script screen (Section 16.4 on page 193) stores, names, downloads, uploads and runs shell script files. 16.1.2 What you Need to Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read this chapter. Configuration Files and Shell Scripts When you apply a configuration file, the NWA/WAC uses the factory default settings for any features that the configuration file does not include. When you run a shell script, the NWA/WAC only applies the commands that it contains. Other settings do not change. These files have the same syntax, which is also identical to the way you run CLI commands manually. An example is shown below.
