Using the CLI To Implement Configuration Changes

If you use the CLI to change a parameter setting, and then execute the
command without first executing the
change, the switch prompts you to specify whether to save the changes in the
current running-config file. For example:
Figure 5-2. Boot Prompt for an Unsaved Configuration
The above prompt means that one or more parameter settings in the running-
config file differ from their counterparts in the startup-config file and you need
to choose which config file to retain and which to discard.

If you use the CLI to make a change to the running-config file, you should
either use the

Manually enter the earlier values you had for the changed settings. (This
is recommended if you want to restore a small number of parameter
settings to their previous boot-up values.)
Update the running-config file to match the startup-config file by reboot-
ing the switch. (This is recommended if you want to restore a larger
number of parameter settings to their previous boot-up values.)
Disables port 1 in the running configuration, which causes port 1 to block all traffic.
If you want to update the startup-config file to match the running-config
file, press [Y] for "yes". (This means that the changes you entered in the
running-config file will be saved in the startup-config file.)
If you want to discard the changes you made to the running-config file so
that it will match the startup-config file, then press [N] for "no". (This means
that the switch will discard the changes you entered in the running-config
file and will update the running-config file to match the startup-config
file.)
