View Configuration Files
Configuration files have three commented lines at the beginning of the file, as shown in the following
example, to help you track the last time any user made a change to the file, which user made the
changes, and when the file was last saved to the startup-configuration.
In the running-configuration file, if there is a difference between the timestamp on the “Last
configuration change,” and “Startup-config last updated,” you have made changes that have not been
saved and will not be preserved after a system reboot.
Example of the show running-config Command
Delll#show running-config
