28.6.1 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 restarts the switch to use the second configuration file.
Figure 113 CLI: 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 114 CLI: reload config Command Example
Note: 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.
28.6.2 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.
ras# boot config 2
ras# reload config 2
