Connecting to a Module
At any time, you can connect to any module by using the
attach module
command. Once you are at the
module prompt, you can obtain further details about the module by using module-specific commands in EXEC
mode.
Step 1
Enter the
attach module slot_number
command.
Example:
switch#
attach module 1
switch#
Provides direct access to the I/O module in slot 1 (in this example, the supervisor module is in slot 2).
Step 2
dir bootflash
Example:
switch#
dir bootflash
Example:
switch# dir bootflash:

To exit the module-specific prompt, use the
exit
command.
Note
If you are not accessing the switch from a console terminal, this step is the only way to access the standby
supervisor module.
Tip
Saving the Module Configuration
To save the new configuration along with the non-default VDC configuration to nonvolatile storage, use the
copy running-config startup-config vdc-all
command from EXEC mode. Once you enter these commands,
the running and the startup copies of the configuration are identical.
The following table lists various scenarios when module configurations are preserved or lost.
Consequence
Scenario
The configured module information is lost.
A particular switching module is removed and you
used the
copy running-config startup-config vdc-all
command again.
