Saving Your Parameter Changes
A change to a switch parameter is, in most cases, immediately
implemented on the device as soon as you enter it. However, parameter
changes are initially saved only to temporary memory in the switch. They
are not retained the next time the device is reset or power cycled unless
you permanently save them using the S - Save Configuration Changes
option in the Main Menu. The option instructs the switch to save your
changes to its active configuration file. You should select that Main Menu
option whenever you want the switch to permanently retain a change to a
parameter setting. If you do not see the option in the Main Menu, there are
no parameter changes to be saved.
Note
For further information on a switch’s configuration file, refer to
“Working with Boot Configuration Files” on page 199.
