5-5 Configuration
The switch stores its configuration in a number of text files in CLI format. The files are
either virtual (RAM-based) or stored in flash on the switch.
There are three system files:
running-config: A virtual file that represents the currently active configuration
on the switch. This file is volatile.
startup-config: The startup configuration for the switch, read at boot time.
default-config: A read-only file with vendor-specific configuration. This file is
read when the system is restored to default settings.
It is also possible to store up to two other files and apply them to running-config,
thereby switching configuration.
5-5.1 Save startup-config
This copy running-config to startup-config, thereby ensuring that the currently active
configuration will be used at the next reboot.
Web Interface

1. Chick Browser to select Maintenance/Configuration in you device.
