To save the switch configuration changes, so they survive a switch reboot, you can use either the write memory or the save memory command. Both commands perform the same function, which is to copy the running configuration to the startup configuration. The running configuration is the current active configuration in the switch’s RAM, while the startup configuration is the configuration that is loaded when the switch boots up. By saving the configuration changes to the startup configuration, you ensure that they are preserved after a reboot12. The other commands are not valid for saving the configuration changes. The copy running-config checkpoint backup and copy running-config checkpoint startup-config commands are used to create checkpoints, which are snapshots of the running configuration that can be used to roll back changes in case of errors3. The store memory command does not exist in Aruba switches.
