Table 6-1. Root, User+, and User Privileges
After establishing a User Account with Root-level privileges, press Esc. Then highlight Save Changes and press
Enter (see below). The Switch will save any changes to its non-volatile ram and reboot. You can logon again
and are now ready to continue configuring the Switch.
Save Changes
The DHS-3224V has two levels of memory; normal RAM and non-volatile or NV-RAM. Configuration changes
are made effective by highlighting APPLY and pressing Enter. 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.
