Coexistence of Multiple Configuration Files
Multiple configuration files can be stored on a storage medium of a device. You can save the
configuration used in different environments as different configuration files. In this case, when the
device moves between these networking environments, you just need to specify the corresponding
configuration file as the startup configuration file for the next boot of the device and restart the device,
so that the device can adapt to the network rapidly, saving the configuration workload.
Startup with the Configuration File
The device takes the following steps when it boots:
1) If you have specified a startup configuration file for system startup, and this file exists, the device
will initialize its configuration based on this file.
2) If the specified startup configuration file does not exist, the device will boot with null configuration.
Configuration Display
Follow these steps to display device configurations:

Saving the Current Configuration
Introduction
You can modify the current configuration on your device using command line interface. However, the
current configuration is temporary. To make the modified configuration take effect at the next boot of
the device, you must save the current configuration to the startup configuration file before the device
reboots.
Enabling Configuration File Auto-Save
