Page 294 of the “PMP 450 Series Configuration Guide System Relase r20.0.1.pdf” covers this.

The User Guide can be found here:

https://support.cambiumnetworks.com/files/pmp450/

It’s under Configuration > Unit Settings. There are options to Download your config, or Upload a new config.

Is there a way to push or pull a config file to a pmp450 radio using scp & ssh

I’m able to send the config file to the radio using the following command:

scp -O 450.cfg admin@169.254.1.1:

I don’t know why the -O is necessary but it works. I can telnet or ssh into the radio, type “ls” and the file is there.

ssh -legacy admin@169.254.1.1

ls

Next I can load the file by typing “cfgload 450.cfg” which also works.

But this doesn’t: ssh -legacy admin@169.254.1.1 “cfgload mpop.cfg”

Other devices I’ve worked with have a shell that has to load when you ssh in, otherwise the standard commands are not available. The work-around is to preface the command with either the shell command or a /folder/opt type which points to where the commands are.

I don’t know the answer to your question, but perhaps as a workaround you could use Expect to spawn the SSH session and send the cfgload command?
