Switch Memory and Configuration
Multiple Configuration Files
2. Use the CLI to make configuration changes in the running-config file, and
then execute write mem .
The result is that the startup-config file used to reboot the switch is modified
by the actions in step 2.

Figure 6-18. Example of Reboot Process and Making Changes to the Startup-
Config File
Creating an Alternate Startup-Config File. There are two methods for
creating a new configuration file:
■ Copy an existing startup-config file to a new filename, then reboot the
switch, make the desired changes to the running-config file, then execute
write memory . (Refer to figure 6-6-18, above.)
■ Erase the active startup-config file. This generates a new, default startup­
config file that always results when the switch automatically reboots after
deletion of the currently active startup-config file. (Refer to “Erasing a
Startup-Config File” on page 6-35.)
Transitioning to Multiple Configuration Files
At the first reboot with a software release supporting multiple configuration,
the switch:
■ Assigns the filename
oldConfig
to the existing startup-config file (which is
stored in memory slot 1).
