Non-Critical Changes
1. The changed parameters are copied to the Active Configuration repository.
2. The PNNI system continues running, using the new parameters.
3. If you decide that the configuration changes that you have made should be maintained indefinitely, you
can save the Active Configuration to the NVS Configuration. This ensures that the current Active
Configuration (now with the new parameters) is automatically reinstalled after subsequent reset or
power on actions.
4. If you decide that the configuration changes that you have made should be removed, you can instruct
PNNI to replace the new parameters with the previous values (from the last save). This does not
cause a reset, and the PNNI system continues running.
