Save Services
The following three windows will aid the user in saving configurations to the Switch’s memory.
Save Changes
The Switch has two levels of memory, normal RAM and non-volatile or NV-RAM. Configuration changes are made effective
clicking the Save button. When this is done, the settings will be immediately applied to the switching software in RAM, and will
immediately take effect.
Some settings, though, require you to restart the Switch before they will take effect. Restarting the Switch erases all settings in
RAM and reloads the stored settings from the NV-RAM. Thus, it is necessary to save all setting changes to NV-RAM before
rebooting the switch.
To retain any configuration changes permanently, click Save Services > Save Changes. The save options allow one alternative
configuration image to be stored.
