254 Chapter 40 Command Examples
This command restores a configuration file on the switch. The following example uploads the
configuration file (
test.cfg
) from the TFTP server (
172.23.19.96
) to the switch.

40.6.3 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 restarts the switch to use the second configuration file.
Figure 156 CLI: boot config Command Example
Use the
reload config
command to restart the system and use a different configuration file
(if specified). The following example restarts the system to use the second configuration file.
Figure 157 CLI: reload config Command Example
Note: When you use the
write memory
command without specifying a configuration
file index number, the switch saves the changes to the configuration file the
switch is currently using.
40.6.4 Resetting to the Factory Default
Follow the steps below to reset the switch back to the factory defaults.
1 Enter
erase running config
to reset the current running configuration.
2 Enter
write memory
to save the changes to the current configuration file. If you want to
reset the second configuration file, use the
write memory
command again with the
specified index number.
