Saving Changes

The ZT 8101 has two levels of memory; normal RAM and non-volatile or NV-RAM. Configuration changes are made effective when you click the Apply button. When you do this, the settings are immediately applied to the switching software in RAM and immediately take effect.

Some settings, though, require you to restart the switch before they will take effect. Restarting the switch erases all settings in RAM and reloads the stored settings from the NV-RAM. Thus, it is necessary to save all setting changes to NV-RAM before rebooting the switch.

To retain any configuration changes permanently

1.In the left panel, click Save Changes.

2.Click Save Configuration.

A message appears verifying that your new settings have been saved to NV-RAM.

Once the switch configuration settings have been saved to NV-RAM, they become the default settings for the switch. These settings will be used every time the switch is rebooted. You can use the Factory Reset option to return the switch to its factory configured settings.
