Chapter 2 Managing the GSS from the CLI
Using the startup-config and running-config Files
The
filename
argument specifies the name of the file containing the running
configuration settings.
4.
Save the running-config file as the new startup-config file by entering the
following command:
gss1.example.com#
copy running-config startup-config
The GSS retains any changes to the network configuration of the device and
uses those changes when the GSS is next rebooted.
Loading the startup-config from an External File
In addition to copying your running-config file as a new startup-config file, you
can also upload or download GSS device configuration information from an
external file using the
copy
command. Before you attempt to load the startup
configuration from a file, make sure that the file has been moved to a local
directory on the GSS device.
To load the GSS device startup configuration from an external file, perform the
following steps:
1.
Log in to the CLI and enable privileged EXEC mode.
gssm1.example.com>
enable
gssm1.example.com#
2.
Load the GSS device startup configuration settings from a named file located
on the GSS by entering the following command:
gssm1.example.com#
copy disk startup-config newstartupconfig
The
filename
argument specifies the name of the file containing the startup
configuration settings.
Displaying the running-config File
You can review the contents of the GSS running-config file to verify the current
configuration parameters in use by the GSS device. To display the contents of the
GSS running-config file, use the
show running-config
command. You can use
this command with the
show startup-config
command to compare the
configuration memory to the startup-config file used during the bootup process.
