Configuration file management 

The device provides the configuration file management function. You can manage configuration files on 

the user-friendly command line interface (CLI).

Configuration file overview 

A configuration file contains a set of commands. You can save the current configuration to a 

configuration file so that the configuration can take effect after a device reboot. In addition, you can 

conveniently view the configuration information, or upload/download the configuration file to/from 
another device to configure devices in batches. 

Configuration types 

The configuration loaded at startup is called "startup configuration" and the configuration that is running 

on the device is called "running configuration." 

Startup configuration 

The device uses startup configuration to configure software features during startup. 
The following are sources of startup configuration: 

•

 

Initial settings

—Initial values or states for parameters. If the device starts up with empty 

configuration, all parameters are set to their initial settings at startup. 

•

 

Default configuration file

—Contains factory defaults, which are product-specific default settings 

that are different from initial settings. The file is included in the .bin software image file. If you do not 

configure the device to start up with empty configuration or a startup configuration file, the device 

loads the default configuration file to configure features at startup. If a parameter is not included in 

the file, the device loads its initial setting. 

•

 

Startup configuration file

—Configuration file you specify in the Boot menu or CLI for startup. The file 

is called the "next-startup configuration file." After the file is loaded at startup, it is also called the 

"current startup configuration file." For high availability, you can specify two next-startup 

configuration files, one main and one backup (see "

Specifying a startup configuration file to be 

used at the next system startup

").
