Saving the Configuration
In addition to applying the configuration changes, you can save them to flash memory.
Note: If you do not save the changes, they will be lost the next time the system reboots
To save a configuration changeĀ 
 
>> # save
When you save configuration changes, the changes are saved to the active configuration block. The configuration being replaced by the save is first copied to the backup configuration block. If you do not want the previous configuration block copied to the backup configuration block, enter the following command:
 
>> # save n
You can decide which configuration you want to run the next time you reset Alteon. Your options include:
*Active configuration block
*Backup configuration block
*Factory default configuration
You can view all pending configuration changes that have been applied but not saved to flash memory using the diff flash command. It is a global command that can be executed from any prompt in the CLI hierarchy.
To select the configuration to run at the next system reset, see /boot/conf Selecting a Configuration Block.
