Saving Changes
The GbE Interconnect Switch has two levels of memory, normal RAM and NVRAM.
Configuration changes on a screen are made effective by clicking the Apply button. The
settings are then immediately applied to the switching software in RAM.
To make your configuration changes permanent, save them to NVRAM using the Save
Changes option on the Maintenance menu before rebooting the system.
NOTE: Some settings require you to restart the GbE Interconnect Switch before they take effect.
Restarting the GbE Interconnect Switch erases all settings in RAM and reloads the stored settings from
NVRAM.
To retain any configuration changes permanently:
1. Open the Maintenance folder on the main menu.
2. Click Save Changes. The Save Configuration window is displayed.
3. Click Save Configuration to save all the changes made in the current session to the
NVRAM memory of the GbE Interconnect Switch. A message box is displayed when the
save is completed.
4. Click OK. After the GbE Interconnect Switch configuration settings have been saved to
NVRAM, they become the default settings for the GbE Interconnect Switch. These
settings are used every time the GbE Interconnect Switch is rebooted.
IMPORTANT: After saving your final configuration, Compaq highly recommends that you save the
GbE Interconnect Switch configuration image to TFTP server storage. Refer to the section, “Saving
Settings to TFTP Server,” later in this chapter.
