Use the loadconfig to load new configuration information into the Cisco IronPort appliance. You can
load information in one of two methods:
Step 1 Placing information in the configuration directory and uploading it.
Step 2 Pasting configuration information directly into the CLI.
See Loading a Configuration File, page 8-37 for more information.
Uploading Configuration Changes via the CLI
Step 1 Outside of the CLI, ensure that you are able to access the configuration directory of the appliance. See
Appendix A, “Accessing the Appliance” for more information.
Step 2 Place an entire configuration file or subsection of a configuration file in the configuration directory of
the appliance, or edit an existing configuration that was created from the saveconfig command.
Step 3 Within the CLI, use the loadconfig command to load the configuration file you placed in the directory
from Step 2, or paste the text (XML syntax) directly into the CLI.
