confirmed password match a message will
be displayed.
The user password should not be more than
eight characters in length.
copy running-config
startup-config [ filename ]
This will save passwords and all other
changes to the device.
If you do not save the running config, all
changes will be lost when a power cycle is
performed on the switch or when the switch
is reset.
Notes
• Use of the optional [filename]
parameter sets that file name as the
system default location for the
startup config. The system will now
use that file for its startup
configuration, and future uses of
copy running-config startup-config
will copy the running config to the
same file.
• There is a maximum memory limit of
2 config files; the original system
default and one user-created file.
To create a new config file, you must
first delete any user-created config
files from memory.
• To configure the switch to boot from
a different config file, use the
command boot-system config
<filename> where filename is the
name of the config file from which
you want the system to boot (see
page 249).
