Cisco Small Business 200 Series Smart Switch Administration Guide
Some configuration changes, such as enabling jumbo frame support, require the
system to be rebooted before they take effect. However, rebooting the switch
deletes the Running Configuration, so it is critical that the Running Configuration is
saved to the Startup Configuration before the switch is rebooted. Clicking Apply
does not save the configuration to the Startup Configuration. For more information
on files and file types, see the
System Files chapter.
You can backup the configuration by using Administration > Save/Copy
Configuration or click Save at the top of the window. You can also upload the
configuration from a remote device see the
Configuration or Log"
To reboot the switch:
Click Administration > Reboot. The Reboot Page opens.
Click one of the Reboot buttons to reboot the switch.
• Reboot—Reboots the switch. Since any unsaved information in the Running
Configuration s discarded when the switch is rebooted, you must click Save
in the upper-right corner of any window to preserve current configuration
across the boot process. (If the Save option is not displayed, the Running
Configuration matches the Startup Configuration and no action is
necessary.)
• Reboot to Factory Defaults—Reboots the switch by using factory default
configuration. This process erases the Startup Configuration file; any
settings that are not saved to another file are cleared when this action is
selected.
DHCP Auto Configuration should be disabled (enabled by default), otherwise a
configuration file might be loaded from a TFTP server, instead of the factory default
settings.
