Menu: Implementing Configuration Changes

You can use the menu interface to simultaneously save and implement a
subset of switch configuration changes without having to reboot the switch.
That is, when you save a configuration change in the menu interface, you
simultaneously change both the running-config file and the startup-config file.
The only exception to this operation are two VLAN-related parameter changes
that require a reboot—described under "Rebooting To Activate Configuration
Changes" on page 6-12.
Using and
Save Cancel
For any configuration screen in the menu interface, the Save command:
1. Implements the changes in the running-config file
2. Saves your changes to the startup-config file
If you decide not to save and implement the changes in the screen, select
Cancel to discard them and continue switch operation with the current oper­
ation. For example, suppose you have made the changes shown below in the
System Information screen:
