Using the Menu and Web Browser
Interfaces To Implement Configuration
Changes
The menu and web browser interfaces offer these advantages:
â– Quick, easy menu or window access to a subset of switch configuration
features
â– Viewing several related configuration parameters in the same screen, with
their default and current settings
â– Immediately changing both the running-config file and the startup-config
file with a single command
Menu: Implementing Configuration Changes
You can use the menu interface to simultaneously save and implement a subset
of switch configuration changes without having to reboot the switch. That is,
when you save a configuration change in the menu interface, you simultane-
ously change both the running-config file and the startup-config file.
Note The only exception to this operation are two VLAN-related parameter changes
that require a reboot—described under “Rebooting To Activate Configuration
Changes” on page 6-12.
Using Save and Cancel in the Menu Interface
For any configuration screen in the menu interface, the Save command:
1. Implements the changes in the running-config file
2. Saves your changes to the startup-config file
If you decide not to save and implement the changes in the screen, select
Cancel to discard them and continue switch operation with the current oper-
ation. For example, suppose you have made the changes shown below in the
System Information screen:
