copy default-config startup-config
Restores the startup configuration to the default configuration.
Synopsis copy default-config startup-config
Operands None
Defaults None
Command Modes Privileged EXEC mode
Description Use this command to copy the default configuration to the current startup configuration. This
operation effectively resets the startup configuration to factory defaults. It prompts for
confirmation because it overwrites the saved startup configuration.
The command behaves differently depending on whether the switch is in standalone mode or part
of a Brocade VCS fabric.
In standalone mode, all interfaces are shut down. When the switch comes back up, the restored
default configuration is used. The following parameters are unaffected by this command:
• Interface management IP address
• Software feature licenses installed on the switch
In VCS Fabric mode, all interfaces remain online. The restored default configuration is applied with
the exception of the following parameters:
• Interface management IP address
• Software feature licenses installed on the switch
• VCS mode configuration
• Virtual IP address
Usage Guidelines This command is supported only on the local switch.
Examples To restore the default configuration:
switch# copy default-config startup-config
This operation will modify your startup configuration. Do you want to continue?
