This page is used for importing system configuration from an XML file.

Import Configuration from External file picks up all the settings from the external file. Import Configuration from Filesystem picks up settings from the selected Groups, Lines and Instances. Import Line(s) from single line Settings on the Filesystem copies lines settings from an the input file containing only one Line instance to all of the selected Lines.

When selecting a Whole Groups to Import item, all instances of that group will be imported. Notice that by default, all groups are checked except some pertaining to the network configuration; this is so that import will not break your network connectivity. You may check or uncheck any group to include or omit that group from import.

Selection of Lines to Import filters instances to be imported in the line, serial, tunnel, and terminal groups. This affects both Whole Groups to Import and Text List selections.

Use the Text List string to import specific instances of a group. The textual format of this string is:

<g>:<i>;<g>:<i>;...

Each group name <g> is followed by a colon and the instance value <i> and each <g>:<i> value is separated by a semi-colon. If a group has no instance then only the group name <g> should be specified.
