Saving Configuration Changes
The configuration is the customized set of parameters that you have
selected to run on the switch. As you make configuration changes,
the new settings are stored in run-time memory. Settings that are
stored in run-time memory are not retained by the switch when the
switch is rebooted. To retain the settings, and have them load when
you reboot the switch, you must save the configuration to
nonvolatile storage.
The switch can store two different configurations: a primary and a
secondary. When you save configuration changes, you can select to
which configuration you want the changes saved. If you do not
specify, the changes are saved to the configuration area currently in
use.
If you have made a mistake, or you must revert to the configuration
as it was before you started making changes, you can tell the switch
to use the secondary configuration on the next reboot.
To save the configuration, use the following command:
save {configuration} {primary | secondary}
To use the configuration, use the following command:
use configuration [primary | secondary]
The configuration takes effect on the next reboot.
Note
If the switch is rebooted while in the middle of a configuration save,
the switch boots to factory default settings. The configuration that is
not in the process of being saved is unaffected.
Returning to
To return the switch configuration to factory defaults, use the
Factory Defaults
following command:
unconfig switch
This command resets the entire configuration, with the exception of
user accounts and passwords that have been configured, and the
date and time.
To reset all parameters except the date and time, use the following
command:
unconfig switch all
