press to return to the Actions line and do one of the
following:
– To save and activate configuration changes, press
Save action). This saves the changes in the startup
configuration and also implements the change in the
currently running configuration. (See Chapter 5, "Switch
Memory and Configuration".)
– To exit from the screen without saving any changes that you
have made (or if you have not made changes), press
the Cancel action).
Note: In the menu interface, executing Save activates most
parameter changes and saves them in the startup configuration
(or flash) memory, and it is therefore not necessary to reboot the
switch after making these changes. But if an asterisk appears
next to any menu item you reconfigure, the switch will not
activate or save the change for that item until you reboot the
switch. In this case, rebooting should be done after you have
made all desired changes and then returned to the Main Menu.
