Scenario 3: Saving the Working Directory to the Certified Directory
After running the modified configuration settings and checking that there are no problems, the network
administrator decides that the modified configuration settings (stored in the working directory) are
completely reliable. The administrator then decides to save the contents of the working directory to the
certified directory. Once the working directory is saved to the certified directory, the modified configura-
tion file is included in a normal reboot.
Since the working and certified directories are exactly the same, the switch is running from the working
directory.
