Save the Running-Conguration

The running-conguration contains the current system conguration. Dell Networking recommends coping your running-

conguration to the startup-conguration.

The system uses the startup-conguration during boot-up to congure the system. The startup-conguration is stored in the internal

ash on the IOM by default, but you can save it to a USB ash device or a remote server.

The commands in this section follow the same format as those commands in theCopy Files to and from the System section but use

the lenames startup-cong and running-cong. These commands assume that current directory is the internal ash, which is the

system default.

• Save the running-cong to the startup-conguration on the internal ash.

EXEC Privilege mode

copy running-config startup-config

• Save the running-conguration on the IOM.

EXEC Privilege mode

copy running-config usbflash://filename

• Save the running-conguration to an FTP server.

EXEC Privilege mode

copy running-config ftp:// username:password@{hostip | hostname}/filepath/ filename

• Save the running-conguration to a TFTP server.

EXEC Privilege mode

copy running-config tftp://{hostip | hostname}/ filepath/filename

• Save the running-conguration to an SCP server.

EXEC Privilege mode

copy running-config scp://{hostip | hostname}/ filepath/filename

NOTE: When copying to a server, you can only use a host name if you have congured a DNS server.

• Save the running-conguration to the startup-conguration on the internal ash of the primary RPM. Then copy the new

startup-cong le to the external ash of the primary RPM.

EXEC Privilege mode

copy running-config startup-config duplicate

Dell Networking OS Behavior: If you create a startup-conguration on an RPM and then move the RPM to another chassis, the

startup-conguration is stored as a backup le (with the extension .bak), and a new, empty startup-conguration le is created. To
