Configuring configuration rollback

To replace the running configuration with the configuration in a configuration file without rebooting the
device, use the configuration rollback function. This function helps you revert to a previous configuration
state or adapt the running configuration to different network environments.
The configuration rollback function compares the running configuration against the specified
replacement configuration file and handles configuration differences as follows:
• If a command in the running configuration is not in the replacement file, executes its undo form.
If a command in the replacement file is not in the running configuration, adds it to the running
•
configuration.
If a command has different settings in the running configuration and the configuration file, replaces
•
its running configuration with the setting in the configuration file.
To facilitate configuration rollback, the configuration archive function is developed. This function enables
the system to automatically save the running configuration at regular intervals as checkpoint references.
