Backup and restore your switch configuration settings
Tools > Configuration > Backup/Restore
You may have added many customized settings to your switch and in the case that you
need to reset your switch to default, all your customized settings would be lost and
would require you to manually reconfigure all of your switch settings instead of simply
restoring from a backed up switch configuration file. The configuration will be backed up
or restored only to the currently used image.

local hard drive on your TFTP server root directory.
