Saving the Running Configuration
Once the switch has booted and is running, a user can modify various parameters of switch functionality.
These changes are stored temporarily in the RUNNING CONFIGURATION in the RAM of the switch. In
order to save these changes, the RUNNING CONFIGURATION must be saved.
In this diagram:
1 The switch boots from the certified directory, and the software is loaded to the RAM to create a
RUNNING CONFIGURATION. The certified directory is the RUNNING DIRECTORY.
2 Changes are made to the RUNNING CONFIGURATION and need to be saved.
3 Since configuration changes cannot be saved directly to the certified directory, the RUNNING DIREC-
TORY needs to be changed to a different directory before saving the changes.
To change the running directory to a directory other than the certified use the modify running-directory
command as shown and then save the configuration with the write memory command:
-> modify running-directory user-config1
-> write memory
user-config1 Certified
