backup and update of the configurations.
Start up configuration file: refers to the configuration sequence used in switch start up. ES4710BD
start up configuration file stores in FLASH only, corresponding to the so called configuration save.
To prevent illicit file upload and easier configuration, ES4710BD mandates the name of start up
configuration file to be startup-config.
Active configuration file: refers to the active configuration sequence used in the switch. In
ES4710BD, the active configuration file is stored in the RAM. In the current version, the active
configuration sequence running-config can be saved from the RAM to FLASH by the write
command or the copy running-config startup-config command, so that the active configuration
sequence becomes the start up configuration file, which is called configuration save. To prevent
illicit file upload and easier configuration, ES4710BD mandates the name of active configuration
file to be running-config.
Factory configuration file: The configuration file shipped with ES4710BD is in the name of
factory-config. Run set default, write, and then restart the switch. The factory configuration file
will be loaded to overwrite the current start up configuration file.
