Two existing exec mode CLIs are enhanced to display and store the running configuration in the compressed mode.
show running-config compressed and write memory compressed
The compressed configuration will group all the similar looking configuration thereby reducing the size of the configuration.
For this release, the compression will be done only for interface related configuration (VLAN & physical interfaces)
The following table describes how the standard and the compressed configuration differ:
