enter at least one snmp-server enable traps command. Type
“snmp-server enable traps type,” where “type” is either authentication
or link-up-down. Press <Enter>.

Saving Configuration Settings

Configuration commands only modify the running configuration and are
not saved when the switch is rebooted. To save all your configuration
changes in nonvolatile storage, you must copy the r unning configuration to
the start-up configuration file using the “copy” command.
To save the current configuration settings, enter the following command:
1. From the Privileged Exec mode prompt, type “copy running-co nfig
startup-config” and press <Enter>.
2. Enter the name of the start-up file. Press <Enter>.
Managing System Files

uploaded and downloaded, copied, deleted, and set as a start-up file.
