configuration, use the
save configuration {primary | secondary | <existing-config> |
<new-config>}
command.
When you save the configuration file, the switch automatically adds the .cfg file extension to the
filename. This saves the ASCII configuration as an XML-based configuration file.
You can use any name for the configuration. For example, after loading the file meg_upload_config1.xsf,
you need to save it to the switch. To save the configuration as configuration1.cfg, do the following:
save configuration configuration1
