Q:
What software application is used to configure a D20MX configuration?

A:
ConfigPro is partly used to get the D20 device configuration ready for migration into
the SGConfig tool.

It is recommended to migrate a project rather than a device to prevent partial loss of
configuration data related to Ethernet/LAN.

For detailed migration steps, see section "Transfer D20/D200 configurations to the
D20MX" on page 76.
