31.6.3 Using a Different Configuration File
You can store up to two configuration files on the switch. Only one configuration file is used at a time. By default
the switch uses the first configuration file (with an index number of 1). You can set the switch to use a different
configuration file. There are two ways in which you can set the switch to use a different configuration file: restart
the switch (cold reboot) and restart the system (warm reboot).
Use the boot config command to restart the switch and use a different configuration file (if specified). The
following example reboots the switch to use the second configuration file.
