Configuring the GbE Interconnect Switch using the
Web-based Interface
Overview
This chapter describes how to configure the GbE Interconnect Switch from the Web-based
interface.
Saving Changes
The GbE Interconnect Switch has two types of memory: dynamic RAM and non-volatile
RAM (NVRAM).
Restarting the GbE Interconnect Switch erases all configuration settings in RAM and reloads
the stored settings from NVRAM. Thus, it is necessary to save all configuration setting
changes to NVRAM before rebooting the GbE Interconnect Switch.
After the configuration settings have been saved to NVRAM, they become the current
runtime settings for the GbE Interconnect Switch. These settings are then used every time the
GbE Interconnect Switch is rebooted.
Configuration changes on a screen are made effective by clicking Apply. The settings are
then immediately applied to the switching software in RAM.
To make your configuration changes permanent, save them to NVRAM using the Save
Changes option on the Maintenance menu before rebooting the system.
To retain any configuration changes permanently:
1. Open the Maintenance folder on the main menu.
