Restore startup configuration

The startup configuration file, startup.xml, is stored in the config system folder. To create a backup version, copy the startup configuration to a remote server or the local config: or home: directories.

To restore a backup configuration, copy a local or remote file to the startup configuration and reload the switch. After downloading a backup configuration, enter the reload command, otherwise the configuration does not take effect until you reboot.

NOTE: A non-default switch-port profile is not automatically restored. If the downloaded startup configuration you want to restore contains a non-default switch-port profile, you must manually configure and save the profile on the switch, and then reload the switch for the profile settings to take effect. If the backup startup file contains the default switch-port profile, you can simply copy the startup configuration file from the server and reload the switch.
