Save Changes - D-Link DES-3250TG User Manual

4. Please remember that Apply makes changes to the switch configuration for the current session
only. All changes (including User additions or updates) must be entered into non-volatile ram
using the Save Changes command on the Main Menu - if you want these changes to be
permanent.
Admin and User Privileges
There are two levels of user privileges: Admin and User. Some menu selections available to users with
Admin privileges may not be available to those with User privileges.
The following table summarizes the Admin and User privileges:
After establishing a User Account with Admin-level privileges, go to the Maintenance menu and click
Save Changes. Next click Save Configuration. The switch will now save any changes to its non-volatile
ram and reboot. You can logon again and are now ready to continue configuring the Switch.

Save Changes

The DES-3250TG has two levels of memory; normal RAM and non-volatile or NV-RAM. Configuration
changes are made effective by clicking the Apply button. When this is done, the settings will be
immediately applied to the switching software in 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 Save Changes from the Maintenance menu.
