3 If the configurations cause no problems and switch connectivity is
maintained, you can perform the following:
a Save the current running configuration using the
copy config nvram
,
write mem,
or
save config
command.
b Since the new configuration is working properly, cancel the reload using
the
reload cancel
command.
If you make an error when performing configurations in Step 2 that results in the
loss of switch connectivity (for example, an error in the IP address mask, MLT
configuration, or VLAN trunking), the
reload
command provides you with a
safeguard: when the reload timer expires, the switch reboots to the last saved
configuration, and connectivity is re-established. Therefore, you do not have to
travel to the remote site to reconfigure the switch.
For more information, see “reload command” on page 136 .
show mac-address-table enhancement
The
show mac-address-table
CLI command provides the following new
parameters:
include/exclude <pattern>
. These new parameters allow you
to filter the results of the command by displaying only those entries in the address
table that include or exclude the specified pattern. The value for
<pattern> must
be a sequence of 1 to 6 bytes in hex, separated by dashes, for example:
show mac-address-table port 1/1-5 address
