If you use the save file-name command, even if the configuration file saving
■
synchronization for the AMB and SMB (standby main board) function is
enabled, the SMB does not automatically save the current configuration to its
own configuration file. If you do not specify the file-name argument, the SMB
automatically saves the current configuration when the AMB executes the
save command.
In interactive mode, if you use the non-default path (that is, entering a new
■
filename), the system automatically sets the file as the configuration file for
next startup of the device (for a device supporting the main/backup attribute,
the system sets the file as the main configuration file for next startup).
With the configuration file erased, your device will boot up with the default
configuration next time it is powered on.
You may need to erase the configuration file for one of these reasons:
After you upgrade software, the original configuration file does not match the
■
new software.
The startup configuration file is corrupted or not the one you need.
■
When main/backup attributes are supported, the following two situations exist:
While the reset saved-configuration [ main ] command erases the
■
configuration file with main attribute, it only deletes the main attribute of a
configuration file having both main and backup attribute.
While the reset saved-configuration [ backup ] command erases the
■
configuration file with backup attribute, it only deletes the backup attribute of
a configuration file having both main and backup attribute.
Follow the step below to erase the configuration file:
To do...
Erase the startup
configuration file from the
storage device
CAUTION: This command will permanently delete the configuration file from the
device. Use it with caution.
You can assign main or backup attribute to the startup configuration file when
main/backup attributes are supported on your device.
Assigning main attribute to the startup configuration file for next startup
If you save the current configuration to the main configuration file, the system
■
will automatically set the file as the main startup configuration file.
You can also use the startup saved-configuration cfgfile main command to
■
set the file as main startup configuration file.
Use the command...
reset saved-configuration
[ backup | main ]
