This copies running-config to startup-config, thereby ensuring that the currently
active configuration will be used at the next reboot.
Download
It is possible to download any of the files on the switch to the web browser. Select
the file and click “Download Configuration”.
Download of running-config may take a little while to complete, as the file must be
prepared for download.
Upload
It is possible to upload a file from the web browser to all the files on the switch,
except default-configwhich is read-only.
Select the file to upload, select the destination file on the target, then click “Upload
Configuration”.
If the destination is running-config, the file will be applied to the switch configuration.
This can be done in two ways:
Replace mode: The current configuration is fully replaced with the configuration in the
uploaded file.
Merge mode: The uploaded file is merged into running-config.
If the flash file system is full (i.e. contains default-config and 100 other files, usually
includingstartup-config), it is not possible to create new files. Instead an existing file
must be overwritten or another file must be deleted.
Activate
It is possible to activate any of the configuration files present on the switch, except
for running-config which represents the currently active configuration.
Select the file to activate and click “Activate Configuration”. This will initiate the
process of completely replacing the existing configuration with that of the selected
file.
Delete
It is possible to delete any of the writable files stored in flash,
including startup-config. If this is done and the switch is rebooted without a prior
Save operation, this effectively resets the switch to default configuration.
