Activating and Saving Changes
After making your configuration changes, it is necessary to activate them using the command
activate-conf. Changes are then propagated and started on all radios and will continue running until
the system is rebooted.
To make sure changes are retained after a system reboot, you must save the active (running)
configuration to a startup configuration file, using the command save-conf.
