Syntax:

where
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.
33.7.3 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.
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.
