The configuration rollback function might fail to reconfigure some commands in the running configuration
for one of the following reasons:
• A command cannot be undone, because prefixing the undo keyword to the command does not
result in a valid undo command. For example, if the undo form designed for the A [B] C command
is undo A C, the configuration rollback function cannot undo the A B C command, because the
system does not recognize the undo A B C command.
• A command (for example, a hardware-dependent command) cannot be deleted, overwritten, or
undone due to system restrictions.
• The commands in different views are dependent on each other.
• Commands or command settings that the device does not support cannot be added to the running
configuration.
Specifying the next-startup configuration file
You can specify a .cfg configuration file as the startup configuration file to be used at the next startup
when you use the save command to save the running configuration to it.
Alternatively, perform the following task in user view to specify the next-startup configuration file:

configuration file.

The configuration file must use
the .cfg extension and be saved in
the root directory of the storage
medium. If the storage medium has
been partitioned, save the file on
the first partition.
