automatic configuration
archiving, restores the default
settings for the archive

archive configuration max

saved configuration archives.
3. (Optional.) Set the maximum
number of configuration
archives.
archive configuration max file-number
The default number is 5.
Change the setting depending
on the amount of storage
available on the device.
Enabling automatic configuration archiving
To avoid decreasing system performance, follow these guidelines when you configure automatic
configuration archiving:
• If the device configuration does not change frequently, manually archive the running configuration
as needed.
• If a low-speed storage medium (such as a flash memory) is used, archive the running configuration
manually, or configure automatic archiving with an interval longer than 1440 minutes (24 hours).
• If a high-speed storage medium (such as a CF card) is used and the device configuration changes
frequently, set a shorter saving interval.
Make sure you have set an archive path and file name prefix before performing this task.
