command in ACS copies a configuration (running or startup).
Running Configuration
The ACS active configuration stores itself in the ACS RAM. Every configuration command you enter
resides in the running configuration. If you reboot your ACS server, you lose the configuration. If you
make changes that you want to save, you must copy the running configuration to a safe location, such as
a network server, or save it as the ACS server startup configuration.
terminal Executes configuration commands from the terminal.
Command Description
show running-configuration Displays the contents of the currently running configuration file or the
configuration.
show startup-configuration Displays the contents of the startup configuration file or the
configuration.
