• 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.
• Change the archiving interval depending on the amount of available storage space. The shorter the
interval, the more free storage space is required.
