You can add comments to a configuration file describing the commands you have entered. Precede a comment with an exclamation point (!).

Use the following commands to configure the software from the terminal.

Command

Purpose

 

 

configure

Enters global configuration mode and select the terminal option.

 

 

Switch(config)#

The global configuration prompt. Enter the necessary configuration

 

commands.

 

 

copy running-config startup-config

Saves the configuration file to your startup configuration. On most

 

platforms, this step saves the configuration to NVRAM.

 

 

end or press Ctrl-Z (^Z)

Exits global configuration mode.

 

 

In the following example, the hostname command is used to change the hostname from "Switch" to "new_name". By pressing Ctrl-Z (^Z) or entering the end command, you quit1 the global configuration mode. Finally, the copy running-configstartup-configcommand saves the current configuration to the startup configuration.

Switch# configure

Switch(config)# hostname new_name new_name(config)# end

new_name# copy running-config startup-config

When the startup configuration is in NVRAM, it stores the current configuration information in text format as configuration commands, recording only non-default settings. The memory is checksummed to guard against corrupted data.

5.2.2 Copying Configuration Files to a Network Server

You can copy configuration files from the switch to a file server using TFTP. You might wish to back up a current configuration file to a server before changing its contents, thereby allowing you to later restore the original configuration file from the server.

Important: TFTP is not a secure protocol. Your server IP address and configuration file name will not be protected over the public Internet. Use TFTP only on a trusted LAN connection.

To specify that the running or startup configuration file be stored on a TFTP network server, use the following commands in the EXEC mode. (Note: Copying the startup configuration file to the current running configuration merges the two files. You should keep a copy of the start-up configuration file before merging the two in case you want to revert to the original startup configuration).
