31.9 Using Command History
The switch keeps a list of recently used commands available to you for reuse. You can use any commands in the history again by pressing the up (y) or down (z) arrow key to scroll through the previously used commands and press [ENTER]. Use the history command to display the list of commands.
sysname> history enable
exit show ip history
sysname>
31.10 Saving Your Configuration
After you set the switch settings with the configuration commands, use the write memory command to save the changes permanently.
Note: The write memory command is not available in User mode.
You must save your changes after each CLI session. All unsaved configuration changes are lost once you restart the switch.
sysname# write memory
31.10.1 Switch Configuration File
When you configure the switch using either the CLI (Command Line Interface) or web configurator, the settings are saved as a series of commands in a configuration file on the switch. You can perform the following with a configuration file:
•Back up switch configuration once the switch is set up to work in your network.
•Restore switch configuration.
