4.2.21 Configuration Download 

The switch stores its configuration in a number of text files in CLI format. The files are either virtual (RAM-based) or stored in 

flash on the switch.   

There are three system files:   

 

running-config: A virtual file that represents the currently active configuration on the switch. This file is volatile. 

 

startup-config: The startup configuration for the switch, read at boot time. 

 

default-config: A read-only file with vendor-specific configuration. This file is read when the system is restored to default 

settings. 

It is also possible to store up to two other files and apply them to running-config, thereby switching configuration. 

Configuration Download page allows the download the running-config, startup-config and default-config on the switch. Please 

refer to the Figure
