exit from the command line interface and log out.
copy running-config startup-config
Write configuration changes to non-volatile flash memory.
logout Exit from the command line interface and log out.
ping Use this command to verify station-to-station connectivity across the
network. The format is as follows:
ping {<hostname>|<IP address>} [<tries (1-32)> [<msec delay>]]
Where the IP address or hostname specify the target device. Use of a
hostname requires DNS parameters to be configured on the switch.
Tries (optional) is the number of attempts (1-32), and msec delay
(optional) is the number of milliseconds between attempts.
traceroute
Use this command to identify the route used for station-to-station
connectivity across the network. The format is as follows:
traceroute {<hostname>|<IP address>} [<max-hops (1-32)>
[<msec delay>]]
Where IP address or hostname specifies the target station. Use of a
hostname requires DNS parameters to be configured on the switch.
Max-hops (optional) is the maximum distance to trace (1-16 devices), and
msec delay (optionally available if max-hops is specified) is the number of
milliseconds for wait for the response.
