Copying Configuration Files

You must have administrator access to copy the configuration files.

If you make any changes, you must save the running configuration as the startup configuration to save the changes. Before you do this, always copy your startup configuration to a file on the switch or on a TFTP server.

You can save the running configuration to the startup configuration and copy the startup configuration to a file using either the Web Agent or the CLI.

Configuration files are automatically saved as text files using the *.txt extension on your switch. If you save the new file to a TFTP server, you can edit the startup.txt file using a text editor of your choice and save copies of it with a .txt extension.

Important: Do not copy the startup configuration to the running configuration. The switch does not support this activity. If you need to reapply the startup configuration, restart the switch.
