Configuration restore without force option
If the two configuration files backed up are file1 and file2:
Prerequisites
Backup the configuration using either the traditional
copy config
or the
cfg-backup
commands.
Procedure
1.
Execute the
show config files
command. By default, the
config
file provides all the associations.
switch(config)# show config files
Configuration files:
id | act pri sec | name
---+-------------+-------
1 | * * * | config
2 | | file1
3 | | file2
4 | |
5 | |
2.
Use
cfg-restore flash file1
command to see the configuration of file1.
switch(config)# cfg-restore flash file1
Even after executing the previous command, associations will remain the same, but the running configuration
is replaced by file1 configuration.
NOTE:
In a configuration restore without reboot, the association remains the same. The default
config
file is updated based on the configuration of the restored file.
