Displaying the Operating Configurations

You can display the configuration file when you are in privileged EXEC (enable) mode.
•To see the current operating configuration, enter the following command at the enable prompt:
Switch# more system:running-config
•To see the configuration saved in NVRAM, enter the following command:
Switch# more nvram:startup-config
If you made changes to the configuration,but did not yet write the changes to NVRAM, the contents of
the running-config file will differ from the contents of the startup-config file.
Configuring the Host Name
In addition to passwords and an IP address, your initial configuration should include the host name to
make it easier to configureand troubleshoot the Cisco ONS 15530. To configure the host name, perform
the following steps:
Command Purpose
Step1 Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)#
Enters global configuration mode.
Step2 Switch(config)# hostname name Specifies a system name.
