Configuration Dump
The dump program writes the current switch configuration to the terminal screen. To start the dump program, at the prompt, enter:
Switch(config)# show
The configuration is displayed with parameters that have been changed from the default values. The screen display can be captured, edited, and placed in a script file, which can be used to configure other switches. Paste the configuration commands from the script file at the command line prompt of the switch. The active configuration can also be saved or loaded via TFTP.
