Switch Memory and Configuration

Switch Memory and Configuration

Using the Menu and Web Browser Interfaces To Implement Configuration Changes

Using Save and Cancel in the Menu Interface

For any configuration screen in the menu interface, the Save command:

1.Implements the changes in the running-config file

2.Saves your changes to the startup-config file

If you decide not to save and implement the changes in the screen, select Cancel to discard them and continue switch operation with the curent opera- tion. For example, suppose you have made the changes shown below in the System Information screen:

To save and implement the changes for all parameters in this screen, press the [Enter] key, then press

[S](for Save). To cancel all changes, press the [Enter] key, then press [C] (for Cancel)

Cancelled

 

 

N o t e

If you reconfigure a parameter in the CLI and then go to the menu interface

 

without executing a write memory command, those changes are stored only in

 

the running configuration (even if you execute a Save operation in the menu

 

interface). If you then execute a switch reboot command in the menu inter-

 

face, the switch discards the configuration changes made while using the CLI.

 

To ensure that changes made while using the CLI are saved, execute write

 

memory in the CLI before rebooting the switch.
