SET CONFIG

Syntax

set config=[cflash:]

filename

.cfg|none

Parameter

config

Specifies the name of the configuration file to act as the

active configuration file on the stack. The name can be
from 1 to 16 alphanumeric characters, not including the
extension “.cfg”. If the filename contains spaces,
enclose it in double quotes.

Description

This command specifies the active configuration file on the master switch.
The master switch uses the active configuration file to save the stack
parameter settings when the SAVE CONFIGURATION command is
issued and to configure the settings whenever the stack performs the
discovery process.

Before using this command, note the following:

ˆ

To view the name of the currently active configuration file, see “SHOW
CONFIG” on page 212.

ˆ

The configuration file must already exist. To view the files, see “SHOW
FILE” on page 213.
Configuration files have a “.cfg” extension. To
create an entirely new configuration file, refer to “CREATE CONFIG”
on page 203.

ˆ

Changing the active boot configuration file does not change the current
operating configuration of the stack. You must reset or power cycle the
stack after specifying the new active boot configuration file if you want
it to use the settings in the file.

ˆ

If you specify a new active configuration file and enter the SAVE
CONFIGURATION command without resetting the stack, the current
settings of the switch overwrite the settings in the file.

ˆ

The NONE option does the following:
– It removes the currently active configuration file without

assigning a new one.

– The stack continues to operate with its existing configuration

settings.

– You may make further parameter changes, but you cannot

save them.

– If you reset the stack, it uses the STACK.CFG file to configure

its settings.
