Saving CLI Changes
Configuration changes made in any of the CLI modes are only temporarily
changed in RAM memory. Changes are not saved into the configuration files
unless you run the config, runconfig or config savetoflash
configuration commands, which are described in the following table.
See the sections describing the various modes for examples of how to save
configuration changes.
Using CLI Hot Keys
The CLI hot keys can be used to perform the following types of actions:
• Move the cursor on the command line
• Move through the list of commands in the command history
• Edit characters on the command line.

any configuration changes made since the last time the
savetoflash option was executed.
