Figure 5-3. Example of Pending Configuration Changes that Can Be Saved or
Cancelled
N o t e
If you reconfigure a parameter in the CLI and then go to the menu interface 
without executing a 
write memory command, those changes are stored only in
the running configuration (even if you execute a Save operation in the menu 
interface). If you then execute a switch reboot command in the menu inter-
face, the switch discards the configuration changes made while using the CLI. 
To ensure that changes made while using the CLI are saved, execute 
write
memory in the CLI before rebooting the switch.
Rebooting from the Menu Interface
■
Terminates the current session and performs a reset of the operating 
system
■
Activates any configuration changes that require a reboot
■
Resets statistical counters to zero
(Note that statistical counters can be reset to zero without rebooting the 
switch. See “Displaying Port Counters” on page 17-10.)
To Reboot the switch, use the
Reboot Switch option in the Main Menu. (Note
that the Reboot Switch option is not available if you log on in Operator mode; 
that is, if you enter an Operator password instead of a manager password at 
the password prompt.)
To save and 
implement the 
changes for all 
parameters in this 
screen, press the 
[Enter] key, then press 
[S] (for Save). To 
cancel all changes, 
press the [Enter] key, 
then press [C] (for 
Cancel)
