Modifying the Startup Configuration

Note On Catalyst 3750-E switches, this command only works properly from a standalone switch.

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to specify a different configuration filename:

	Command	Purpose
Step 1
	configure terminal	Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
	boot config-file flash:/file-url	Specify the configuration file to load during the next boot cycle.
		For file-url, specify the path (directory) and the configuration
		filename.
		Filenames and directory names are case sensitive.
Step 3
	end	Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4
	show boot	Verify your entries.
		The boot config-fileglobal configuration command changes the
		setting of the CONFIG_FILE environment variable.
Step 5
	copy running-config startup-config	(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.

To return to the default setting, use the no boot config-fileglobal configuration command.

Booting Manually

By default, the switch automatically boots up; however, you can configure it to manually boot up.

Note On Catalyst 3750-E switches, this command only works properly from a standalone switch.

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the switch to manually boot up during the next boot cycle:

	Command	Purpose
Step 1
	configure terminal	Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
	boot manual	Enable the switch to manually boot up during the next boot cycle.
Step 3
	end	Return to privileged EXEC mode.
