Save Changes

The Switch has two levels of memory normal RAM and non-volatile or NV-RAM. Settings need to be changed
in all screens by clicking on the Apply button. When this is done, the settings will be immediately applied to
the switching software in RAM, and will immediately take effect. Some settings, though, require you to restart
the Switch before they will take effect. Restarting the Switch will erase all settings in RAM and reload them
from the NV-RAM. Thus, it is necessary to save all settings to the NV-RAM before restarting the Switch.
In order to retain any modifications made in the current session, it is necessary to choose Save Changes from
the main menu. The following screen will appear to indicate your new settings have been processed:
