CREATE CONFIG

Syntax

create config=”filename.cfg”

Parameter

config

Specifies the name of a new configuration file. If the

 

filename contains spaces, it must be enclosed in

 

double quotes. Otherwise, the quotes are optional.

Description

This command creates a new configuration file containing the commands required to recreate the current configuration of the switch.

The CONFIG parameter specifies the name of the configuration file to create. The file extension must be “.cfg”. If the file already exists, it is replaced. If the file does not exist it is created.

The filename can be from 1 and 16 alphanumeric characters, not including the “.cfg” extension. Spaces are allowed. Be sure to enclose the name in double quotes if you include a space in the name. Wildcards are not allowed.

This command does not change the assignment of the active boot configuration file, which is the file the switch uses to configure itself the next time it is reset or power cycled. To assign the new configuration file as the active boot configuration file, refer to SET CONFIG on page 232.

Example

The following command creates the new configuration file Switch12.cfg. The file will contain all of the commands necessary to recreate the switch’s current configuration:

create config=Switch12.cfg
