Using a Different Configuration File

You can store up to two configuration files on the switch. Only one configuration file is used at a time. By default
the switch uses the first configuration file (with an index number of 1). You can set the switch to use a different
configuration file. There are two ways in which you can set the switch to use a different configuration file: restart
the switch (cold reboot) and restart the system (warm reboot).

Use the boot config command to restart the switch and use a different configuration file (if specified). The
following example reboots the switch to use the second configuration file.

Figure 30-12 CLI: boot config Command Example

Use the reload config command to restart the system and use a different configuration file (if specified). The
following example restarts the system to use the second configuration file.

Figure 30-13 CLI: reload config Command Example

When you use the

write memory

command without specifying a configuration file index number,

the switch saves the changes to the configuration file the switch is currently using.
