Parameter Description
<source-url> The URL of a configuration file. This must be a valid
configuration file with a .cfg filename extension. Specify
this when you want the script in the file to become the new
running-config. The URL can contain the following
protocols or location words. See
“URL Syntax and
Keyword Usage” on page 7.3 for valid URL syntax.
<destination-url> The URL where you would like the current running-config
saved. This command creates a file if no file exists with the
specified filename. If a file already exists, then the CLI
prompts you before overwriting the file. See
“URL Syntax
and Keyword Usage” on page 7.3 for valid URL syntax. If
you do not specify a file name, the switch saves the
running-config to a file called default.cfg.
startup-config Copies the running-config into the file set as the current
startup-config file.
