Saving the Configuration

G8332 Command Reference for ENOS 8.4
As you use the configuration commands to set switch parameters, the changes you
make take effect immediately. You do not need to apply them. Configuration
changes are lost the next time the switch boots, unless you save the changes.
You can view all running configuration changes that have been applied but not
saved to flash memory using the show running­config diff command in
Privileged EXEC mode.
Note: Some operations can override the settings of the Configuration commands.
Therefore, settings you view using the Configuration commands (for example,
port status) might differ from run‐time information that you view using the
Information commands. The Information commands display current run‐time
information of switch parameters.
You must save configuration settings to flash memory, so the G8332 reloads the
settings after a reboot.
Note: If you do not save the changes, they will be lost the next time the system is
rebooted.
To save the new configuration, enter the following command:
RS G8332# copy running­config startup­config
or:
RS G8332# write
Note: The write command doesn't prompt the user for confirmation.
When you save configuration changes, the changes are saved to the active
configuration block. For instructions on selecting the configuration to run at the
next system reboot, see "Selecting a Configuration Block" on page 697.
