# copy nvram:
new-startup
startup-config
Replaces the existing persistent startup
configuration with the startup
configuration
new-startup
already
present in flash memory.
Note:
It is assumed that the configuration
new-startup
that is present in flash memory was previously
copied to the flash memory, e.g. from a TFTP server using the
copy
command.
Example: Replacing the Startup Configuration w ith a Configuration from
Flash Memory
The following example shows how to overwrite and therefore replace the persistent startup
configuration in the flash memory of a SmartNode with the configuration contained in the file
new-
startup
already present in the flash memory.
Step 1
First replace the current startup configuration, using the
copy
command, into the flash memory area
where the startup configuration has to be stored.
SN#
copy nvram:new-startup startup-config
Step 2
Check the content of the persistent startup configuration by listing its command settings with the
show
command.
SN#
show startup-config
