4. Use the copy running-config startup-config command to save the
running-config file as the new startup-config file. The GSS retains any
changes to the network configuration of the device and uses those changes
when the GSS is next rebooted.
gss1.example.com# copy running-config startup-config
Loading the Startup Configuration from an External File
In addition to copying your running-config file as a new startup-config file, you
can also upload or download GSS device configuration information from an
external file using the copy command. Before you attempt to load the startup
configuration from a file, make sure that the file has been moved to a local
directory on the GSS device.
To load the GSS device startup configuration from an external file:
1. Log in to the CLI and enable privileged EXEC mode.
gssm1.example.com> enable
gssm1.example.com#
2. Use the copy disk startup-config command to load the GSS device startup
configuration settings from a named file located on the GSS. The filename
variable specifies the name of the file containing the startup configuration
settings.
gssm1.example.com# copy disk startup-config newstartupconfig
Displaying the Running-Config File
You can review the contents of the GSS running-config file to verify the current
configuration parameters in use by the GSS device. To display the contents of the
GSS running-config file, use the show running-config command. You can use
this command in conjunction with the show startup-config command to compare
the configuration memory to the startup-config file used during the bootup
process.
Configuration entries within each mode in the running-config file appear in
chronological order, based on the order in which you configure the GSS. The GSS
does not display default configurations in the running-config file.
