Switch Memory and Configuration Using the CLI To Implement Configuration Changes Note If you use the CLI to make a change to the running-config file, you should either use the write memory command or select the save option allowed during a reboot (figure 6-6-2, above) to save the change to the startup-config file. That is, if you use the CLI to change a parameter setting, but then reboot the switch from either the CLI or the menu interface without first executing the write memory command in the CLI, the current startup-config file will replace the running-config file, and any changes in the running-config file will be lost. Using the Save command in the menu interface does not save a change made to the running config by the CLI unless you have also made a configuration change in the menu interface. Also, the menu interface displays the current running-config values. Thus, where a parameter setting is accessible from both the CLI and the menu interface, if you change the setting in the CLI, the new value will appear in the menu interface display for that parameter. However, as indicated above, unless you also make a configuration change in the menu interface, only the write memory command in the CLI will actually save the change to the startup-config file. How To Reset the startup-config and running-config Files to the Factory Default Configuration. This command reboots the switch, replacing the contents of the current startup-config and running-config files with the factory-default startup configuration. Syntax: erase startup-config For example: ProCurve(config)# erase startup-config Configuration will be deleted and device rebooted, continue [y/n]? Figure 6-3. Example of erase startup-config Command Press [y] to replace the current configuration with the factory default configuration and reboot the switch. Press [n] to retain the current configuration and prevent a reboot. 6-9
