Selecting a Configuration Block
When you make configuration changes to the GbE2c, you must save the changes so that they are
retained beyond the next time the switch is reset. When you perform a save operation
(copy running-config startup-config
), your new configuration changes are placed in
the active configuration block. The previous configuration is copied into the backup configuration
block.
There is also a factory configuration block. This holds the default configuration set by the factory
when your GbE2c was manufactured. Under certain circumstances, it may be desirable to reset the
switch configuration to the default. This can be useful when a custom-configured GbE2c is moved
to a network environment where it will be re-configured for a different purpose.
In Global Configuration mode, use the following command to set which configuration block you
want the switch to load the next time it is reset:
Address or name of remote host: <IP address or hostname>
Destination file name: <filename>
User name: {<username>|<Enter>}
