It is always best practice to download and save the configuration of the ADC once it is fully set up and working as required. You can use the Configuration module to both download and upload a configuration.
Jetpacks are configuration files for standard applications and are provided by Edgenexus to simplify your job. These, too, can be uploaded to the ADC using the Configuration module.
A configuration file is essentially a text-based file, and as such, can be edited by you using a text editor such as Notepad++ or VI. Once edited as required, the configuration file can be uploaded into the ADC.
Downloading a configuration
· To download the current configuration of the ADC, press the Download Configuration button.
· A pop-up will appear asking you to open or save the .conf file.
· Save to a convenient location.
· You can open this with any text editor, such as Notepad++.
Uploading a configuration
· You may upload a saved configuration file by browsing for the saved .conf file.
· Click the ‘Upload Config or Jetpack’ button.
· The ADC will upload and apply the config and then refresh the browser. If it does not refresh the browser automatically, please click refresh on the browser.
· You will be redirected to the Dashboard page upon completion.
Upload a jetPACK
· A jetPACK is a set of configuration updates to the existing configuration.
· A jetPACK can be as small as changing the TCP Timeout value right up to a complete application-specific configuration such as Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft Lync.
o You can obtain a jetPACK from the support portal shown at the end of this guide.
· Browse for the jetPACK.txt file.
· Click upload.
· The browser will refresh automatically after upload.
· You will be redirected to the Dashboard page upon completion.
· The import may take longer for more complex deployments such as Microsoft Lync etc.
