Saving Configuration Changes

The configuration is the customized set of parameters that you have selected to run on the switch. As
you make configuration changes, the new settings are stored in run-time memory. Settings that are
stored in run-time memory are not retained by the switch when the switch is rebooted. To retain the
settings, and have them load when you reboot the switch, you must save the configuration to
nonvolatile storage.

The switch can store two different configurations: a primary and a secondary. When you save
configuration changes, you can select into which configuration area you want the changes saved. If you
do not specify the configuration area, the changes are saved to the configuration area currently in use.

If you have made a mistake, or you must revert to the configuration as it was before you started
making changes, you can tell the switch to use the secondary configuration on the next reboot.

To save the configuration, use the following command:

save {configuration} {primary | secondary}

To use the configuration, use the following command:

use configuration [primary | secondary]

The configuration takes effect on the next reboot.
