. The
Configuration Files
Properties
page opens.
This page provides the following fields:

Copying Configuration Files
When you click
Apply
on any window, changes that you made to the switch
configuration settings are stored
only
in the Running Configuration. To preserve
the parameters in the Running Configuration, the Running Configuration must be
copied to another configuration type or saved as a file on another device.
!
CAUTION
Unless the Running Configuration is copied to the Startup Configuration or another
configuration file, all changes made since the last time the file was copied are lost
when the switch is rebooted.
