• The extension of the
configuration file must be .cfg.
• You specify chassis
chassis-number only when the
switch is in IRF mode.
• The all keyword saves the
configuration to all SRPUs.
• In standalone mode, if neither
all nor slot slot-number are
specified, the command saves
the configuration to the active
SRPU.
• In IRF mode, if neither all nor
chassis chassis-number slot
slot-number are specified, the
command saves the

• Power off and then power on the switch. Use this approach with caution. Powering off a running
switch can cause data loss and hardware damages.
Use one of the following commands to reboot the switch or a card at once:
