CREATE CONFIG

Syntax

create config=[cflash:]

filename

.cfg

Parameter

config

Specifies the name of a new configuration file. If the
filename contains spaces, enclose it in double quotes.
Otherwise, the quotes are optional. To store the
configuration file on a flash memory card, precede the
name with “cflash:”.

Description

This command creates a new configuration file in the file system of the
master switch. The file contains all of the commands for recreating the
current configuration settings on the switches in the stack.

The CONFIG parameter specifies the name for the configuration file. The
file extension must be “.cfg”. If the file already exists, it is replaced. If the
file does not exist it is created.

The filename can be from 1 to 16 alphanumeric characters, not including
the “.cfg” extension. Spaces are allowed. Be sure to enclose the name in
double quotes if you include a space in the name. Wildcards are not
allowed.

This command does not change the current assignment of the active boot
configuration file, which the master switch uses to configure the stack. To
change the active boot configuration file, refer to “SET CONFIG” on
page 209.

Examples

This command creates the new configuration file Stack1ab.cfg in the
master switch’s file system:

create config=Switch1ab.cfg

This command creates a configuration file named “sales stack.cfg” and
stores it on a compact flash card:

create config=cflash:”sales stack.cfg”
