### Copying a Configuration File from a Host to a Digi Device

This section describes how to copy the configuration file from a host to a Digi One RealPort or PortServer TS after the file has been edited on the host.

#### Starting Point

This procedure assumes that you

- Have edited a configuration file on a host and now want to copy it to the Digi device for use
- Are logged in to the Digi device as the administrator, which is a requirement for using the cpconf command to copy the configuration file to a host

#### Procedure

Supply a cpconf command with a fromhost field that specifies the following:

- The IP address of the source host
- The name of the configuration file on the host

#### Example

`cpconf fromhost=199.250.121.12 cnfg-file`
