33.6.3 Using a Different Configuration File
You can store up to two configuration files on the switch. Only one configuration file is used
at a time. By default the switch uses the first configuration file (with an index number of 1).
You can set the switch to use a different configuration file. There are two ways in which you
can set the switch to use a different configuration file: restart the switch (cold reboot) and
restart the system (warm reboot).
Use the boot config command to restart the switch and use a different configuration file
(if specified). The following example reboots the switch to use the second configuration file.
Figure 138 boot config Command Example
Use the reload config command to restart the system and use a different configuration
file (if specified). The following example restarts the system to use the second configuration
file.
Figure 139 CLI: reload config Command Example
" When you use the write memory command without specifying a configuration
file index number, the switch saves the changes to the configuration file the
switch is currently using.
33.6.4 Resetting to the Factory Default
Follow the steps below to reset the switch back to the factory defaults.
1 Enter “
erase running config” to reset the current running configuration.
2 Enter “
write memory” to save the changes to the current configuration file. If you want to
reset the second configuration file, use the
write memory command again with the
specified index number.
The following example resets both configuration files to the factory default settings.
