Save the Running-Configuration
The running-configuration contains the current system configuration. Dell EMC Networking recommends coping your running-
configuration to the startup-configuration.
The commands in this section follow the same format as those commands in the Copy Files to and from the System section
but use the filenames startup-configuration and running-configuration. These commands assume that current directory is the
internal flash, which is the system default.
Save the running-configuration to the startup-configuration on the internal flash of the primary RPM.
EXEC Privilege mode
copy running-config startup-config
Save the running-configuration to an FTP server.
