Saving the Current Running Configuration Manually
Automatic saving of the current running configuration occupies system resources, and frequent saving
greatly affects system performance. Therefore, if the system configuration does not change frequently,
you are recommended to disable the automatic saving of the current running configuration and save it
manually.
If the modification to the configuration fails, or is complicated, you can save the current running
configuration manually before you modify it. Therefore, if it really fails, the device can revert to the
configuration state before the modification.
Follow the step below to save the current running configuration manually:
