In Figure 3-2, Config 5 is defined (created). When it is defined, it resides only in RAM. To
permanently store the new configuration and make it accessible across reboots, it must be saved to
flash memory.
This can be accomplished by:
•
Saving it directly to flash (the recommended method). This saves the defined and effective
configurations to flash. If there is no effective configuration, saving it will not enable a
configuration. To save a configuration, use the cfgSave command.
•
Enabling it. This saves the defined and effective configurations to flash. To enable a
configuration, use the cfgEnable command.
