Use an existing partial configuration file

There are cases where it is more effective to use a different folder structure in LANconfig than that required for group configuration. Devices in location-specific folders can indeed be set up with the same group configurations. To avoid having to create the same partial configuration for every folder, links to a common partial configuration file can be created in multiple folders.

  1. To use an existing partial configuration file for a group configuration, click on the appropriate folder with the right-hand mouse key and select Add group configuration... from the context menu.
  2. In the subsequent dialog, select the existing partial configuration file to create a link to this file in the folder.
Note: Please note that changes to the partial configuration file will lead to changes in that group configuration in various folders.
