Configuration Commands

Configuration commands are privileged level commands used to modify switch settings. These
commands modify the running configuration only and are not saved when the switch is rebooted.
To store the running configuration in non-volatile storage, use the copy running-config
startup-config command.

The configuration commands are organized into different modes:

Global Configuration - These commands modify the system level configuration, and include
commands such as hostname and snmp-server community.

Access Control List Configuration - These commands are used for packet filtering.

CFM Configuration - Configures connectivity monitoring using continuity check messages, fault
verification through loopback messages, and fault isolation by examining end-to-end
connections between Provider Edge devices or between Customer Edge devices.

Class Map Configuration - Creates a DiffServ class map for a specified traffic type.

ERPS Configuration – These commands configure Ethernet Ring Protection Switching for
increased availability of Ethernet rings commonly used in service provider networks.

IGMP Profile - Sets a profile group and enters IGMP filter profile configuration mode.

Interface Configuration - These commands modify the port configuration such as speed-duplex
and negotiation.

Line Configuration - These commands modify the console port and Telnet configuration, and
include command such as parity and databits.

Multiple Spanning Tree Configuration - These commands configure settings for the selected
multiple spanning tree instance.

Policy Map Configuration - Creates a DiffServ policy map for multiple interfaces.

Time Range - Sets a time range for use by other functions, such as Access Control Lists.

VLAN Configuration - Includes the command to create VLAN groups.

To enter the Global Configuration mode, enter the command configure in Privileged Exec mode.
The system prompt will change to “Console(config)#” which gives you access privilege to all Global
Configuration commands.
