Parameters

file-url: Specifies a file path, where the file extension must be .cfg. If the file specified for file-url does not

exist, the system creates the file before saving the configuration.

safely: Saves the configuration file in safe mode. If this keyword is not specified, the system saves the

configuration file in fast mode. Safe mode is slower than fast mode, but more secure. In safe mode, the

system saves configuration in a temporary file and starts overwriting the target next-startup configuration

file after the save operation is complete. If a reboot or power failure occurs during the save operation, the

next-startup configuration file is still retained. In fast mode, the device directly overwrites the target

next-startup configuration file. If a reboot or power failure occurs during this process, the next-startup

configuration file is lost.

force: Saves the running configuration to the next-startup configuration file already specified in the system.

Without this keyword, the system asks you to confirm your operation. If you do not confirm your operation

within 30 seconds, the system automatically aborts the operation. If you enter Y within the time limit, you

can continue the save process and change the next-startup configuration file during this process.

Examples

# Save the running configuration to the configuration file test.cfg, without specifying the file as the

next-startup configuration file.

The current configuration will be saved to cfa0:/test.cfg. Continue? [Y/N]:y

Now saving current configuration to the device.
