Viewing and Saving Changes
As you use the configuration commands to set switch parameters, the changes you make take effect
immediately. You do not need to apply them. Configuration changes are lost the next time the
switch boots, unless you save the changes.
Note – Some operations can override the settings of the Configuration commands. Therefore,
settings you view using the Configuration commands (for example, port status) might differ from
run-time information that you view using the Information commands. The Information commands
display current run-time information of switch parameters.
Saving the Configuration
You must save configuration settings to flash memory, so the G8124 reloads the settings after a
reset.
Note – If you do not save the changes, they will be lost the next time the system is rebooted.
To save the new configuration, enter the following command:
When you save configuration changes, the changes are saved to the active configuration block. For
instructions on selecting the configuration to run at the next system reset, see “Selecting a
Configuration Block” on page 419.
