You can save your changes to the boot.params file by entering commit file at the boot prompt:
Boot > commit file
When the commit file command is used, changes will not be enabled until after the next switch reboot.
8
You can also save your changes in real time to the switch’s running memory by entering commit
system at the boot prompt:
Boot > commit system
Caution. There are two important things to consider when using the commit system command to save
serial connection changes:
•
Output to the terminal may become illegible due to incompatible serial connection settings between the
switch and the terminal emulation software.
•
If you use the commit system command only, changes will not be saved to the switch’s boot.params
file and will be lost if the switch is rebooted. To save changes to the boot.params file, refer to step 7.

Return to the CLI prompt by entering exit at the boot prompt.
