Usage Guidelines

If you upgrade the system software to V200R008C10 or a later version, or downgrade the system software to a version earlier than V200R008C10, when the configuration file contains WLAN configurations, the system displays a message indicating that the configuration file conflicts with the system software for next startup when the device restarts. The system software upgrade fails. You are advised to run the check configuration compatible system-software command to check whether the system software for next startup conflicts with the configuration file for next startup, or run the check configuration compatible version version command to check whether a specified system software conflicts with the configuration file for next startup. If a conflict occurs during the upgrade, you need to use the eDesk tool to convert configurations in the configuration file, and specify the converted configuration file as the configuration file for next startup. If the configuration file is not converted, the configurations will be lost after the system is restarted and upgraded. If a conflict occurs during the downgrade, you are advised not to perform the downgrade operation.

After converting configurations in the configuration file using the eDesk tool, restart the switch without saving the configurations. If the configurations are saved, the converted configuration file is invalid.

Example

# Check whether the configuration file for next startup conflicts with the system software for next startup.

<HUAWEI> check configuration compatible system-software
Info: The configuration is compatible with system software.

# Check whether the configuration file for next startup conflicts with V200R019C10.

<HUAWEI> check configuration compatible version V200R019C10
Info: The configuration is compatible with V200R019C10 software.
