Selecting a Configuration Block
When you make configuration changes to the RackSwitch G8124, you must save the changes so
that they are retained beyond the next time the switch is reset. When you perform a save operation
(copy running-config startup-config
), your new configuration changes are placed in
the active configuration block. The previous configuration is copied into the backup configuration
block.
There is also a factory configuration block. This holds the default configuration set by the factory
when your RackSwitch G8124 was manufactured. Under certain circumstances, it may be desirable
to reset the switch configuration to the default. This can be useful when a custom-configured
RackSwitch G8124 is moved to a network environment where it will be re-configured for a
different purpose.
In Global Configuration mode, use the following command to set which configuration block you
want the switch to load the next time it is reset:
Address or name of remote host: <IP address or hostname>
Destination file name: <filename>
User name: {<username>|<Enter>}
