Software Upgrade and Boot Options
NOTE
Configuration files have a .cfg file extension. When you enter the name of the file in the CLI, the system
automatically adds the .cfg file extension.
If you have made a mistake, or you must revert to the configuration as it was before you started
making changes, you can tell the switch to use the backup configuration on the next reboot.
To save the configuration, use the following command:
save configuration {primary | secondary | <existing-config> | <new-config>}
Where the following is true:
•
primary
—Specifies the primary saved configuration
•
secondary
—Specifies the secondary saved configuration
•
existing-config
—Specifies an existing user-defined configuration (displays a list of available
user-defined configuration files)
•
new-config
—Specifies a new user-defined configuration
You are then prompted to save the changes. Enter
y
to save the changes or
n
to cancel the process.
To use the configuration, use the following command:
use configuration [primary | secondary | <file_name>
Where the following is true:
•
primary
—Specifies the primary saved configuration
•
secondary
—Specifies the secondary saved configuration
•
file_name
—Specifies an existing user-defined configuration (displays a list of available user-defined
configuration files)
The configuration takes effect on the next reboot.
NOTE
If the switch is rebooted while in the middle of a configuration save, the switch boots to factory default
settings if the previously saved configuration file is overwritten. The configuration that is not in the
process of being saved is unaffected.
Returning to Factory Defaults
To return the switch configuration to factory defaults, use the following command:
unconfigure switch
This command resets the entire configuration, with the exception of user accounts and passwords that
have been configured, and the date and time.
To erase the currently selected configuration image, reset all switch parameters, and reboot the switch,
use the following command:
unconfigure switch {all}
