Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
After delay delay-interval is specified, if the configuration is changed, the device
automatically saves the configuration after the specified delay.
After automatic saving of configurations is configured, the system automatically saves
the changed configurations to the configuration file for the next startup and
configuration files are changed accordingly with the saved configurations.
Before configuring the automatic configure file saving on the server, you need to run
the set save-configuration backup-to-server server
{ ftp | sftp } ] user user-name password password [ path folder ] or
configuration backup-to-server server
folder ] command to configure the server, including the IP address, user name,
password of the server, destination path, and mode of transporting the configuration
file to the server.
NOTE
If TFTP is used, run the
client source IP address on the router, improving security.
Run:
save [ all ] [ configuration-file ]
The current configurations are saved.
The filename extension of the configuration file must be .cfg or .zip. The system startup
configuration file must be saved in the root directory of a storage device.
The user can modify the current configuration through the command line interface. To set
the current configuration as initial configuration when the router starts next time, you can
use the save command to save the current configuration in the cfcard memory.
You can use the save all command to save all the current configurations, including the
configurations of the boards that are not inserted, to the default directory.
NOTE
When saving the configuration file for the first time, if you do not specify the optional parameter
configuration-file, the router asks you whether to save the file as "vrpcfg.zip" or not. "vrpcfg.zip" is
the default configuration file and initially contains no configuration.
The system software does not match the configuration file after the router has been
upgraded.
The configuration file is destroyed or an incorrect configuration file has been loaded.
