All configuration parameters are divided into three groups according to their application:
configuration parameters applied after the restart;
configuration parameters applied instantly;
configuration parameters requiring confirmation.
Configuration changes, which are used after the restart, are written into the startup
configuration, but before the restart the device continues functioning according to its “old”
configurations. During the device restart, the values of these configurations are copied from the
startup configuration into the running one and thus become valid (see Figure 4.1).
Figure 4.1 Operations with configuration parameters with application after the restart.
Configuration changes, which are used instantly, are written into the running, startup and new
configurations, and the device continues functioning according to these configurations (see
Figure 4.2).
