Configuration Dump
The dump program writes the current switch configuration to the terminal screen. To start the
dump program, at the prompt, enter:
The configuration is displayed with parameters that have been changed from the default val-
ues. The screen display can be captured, edited, and placed in a script file, which can be used to
configure other switches through a Telnet connection. When using Telnet to configure a new
switch, paste the configuration commands from the script file at the command line prompt of
the switch. The active configuration can also be saved or loaded via TFTP, as described on
page 170.

tion commands (as displayed using show running-config) will be uploaded to the spec-
ified script configuration file on the TFTP server. To start the switch configuration upload, at
the prompt, enter:
When the copy backup-config tftp command is used, the switch’s backup configura-
tion commands (as displayed using show backup-config) will be uploaded to the speci-
fied script configuration file on the TFTP server. To start the switch configuration upload, at
the prompt, enter:
RS G8000(config)# show running-config
RS G8000(config)# copy running-config tftp
RS G8000(config)# copy backup-config {tftp}
