Usage Information The write memory command saves the running-conguration to the le labeled startup-conguration.
When using a LOCAL CONFIG FILE other than the startup-cong not named “startup-conguration” (for
example, you used a specic le during the boot config command), the running-cong is not saved to
that le; use the
copy command to save any running-conguration changes to that local le.
