Do you know if there's a way to "upload" configuration files to a switch? So if I have a text file with the running-configurations from another switch and I just basically want to paste it onto a new switch... is there an efficient way to do that?
Yes, you can load another running-config or startup-config into a new switch either by TFTP, FTP, or SCP. You might need to change some interface names if those do not match on the new switch. You will also want to verify that your new switch still supports older commands. Another great video idea! You can also just past the config in from a text file, but I do prefer coping it via TFTP or FTP.
