Save Changes

The Switch has two levels of memory, normal RAM and non-volatile or NV-RAM. Configuration changes are made effective
clicking the Apply button. When this is done, the settings will be immediately applied to the switching software in NV-RAM, and
will immediately take effect.
Some settings, though, require you to restart the Switch before they will take effect. Restarting the Switch erases all settings in
RAM and reloads the stored settings from the NV-RAM. Thus, it is necessary to save all setting changes to NV-RAM before
rebooting the switch.
To retain any configuration changes permanently, click on the Save button in the Save Changes page, as shown below.
