Use the startup saved-configuration command to specify the configuration file used
at next startup.
Use the undo startup saved-configuration command to configure the system to boot
without any configuration file at next startup.
When multiple configuration files are available on the Flash, you may use this

Table 4-2 shows how to name a configuration file:
Table 4-2 Name a configuration file
File name Description
vrpcfg.cfg
Default name for the configuration file to
be saved. The name is specified by the

The following are how configuration files are selected at boot:
1) If you do not set to skip configuration file at boot, configuration files are selected in
the order described in 2) and 3). Otherwise, the system boots with empty
configuration.
2) If you specify a configuration file, the system selects its boot configuration file in
this order: the specified configuration file and then vrpcfg.def. In case vrpcfg.def
does not exist, the system boots with empty configuration.
3) If you do not specify a boot configuration file, the configuration file is selected in
this order: vrpcfg.cfg, vrpcfg.txt, and vrpcfg.def. If none of them exists, the system
boots with empty configuration.
Example
# Set the configuration file used at next boot to master.cfg.
