Save Configurations

The services router stores configurations in two locations - RAM and NVRAM.
The running configuration is stored in RAM and is used by the router during
operation. Any configuration changes to the router are made to the running-
configuration and take effect immediately after the command is entered.

The startup-configuration is saved in NVRAM and is loaded into the router's
running-configuration when the router boots up. If a router loses power or is
reloaded, changes to the running configuration are lost unless they are saved to
the startup-configuration. To save the running-configuration to the startup
configuration, type the following from privileged EXEC mode, for example, at
the ‘Router#’ prompt.

Router# copy running-config startup-config

TIP

Prior to 11.x software, the command to save the running-
configuration to the startup-configuration was different. Use the
following command if your IOS version is prior to 11.x:

Router#write memory

IMPORTANT

When editing a configuration, SAVE the configuration often.
