Upload and Download the Configuration
When you make changes to the switch, the configuration information is stored in a file on the switch.

1.Click the Maintenance tab and select the device with the configuration to save.
2.Click Upload Configuration.
The Browse for Folder window displays
3.Navigate to and select the folder where you want to store the configuration file.
