When you choose a feature name from the menu area, the corresponding configuration con-
trols are displayed in the configuration window. Depending on the selected feature, the config-
uration window provides switch information or allows you to view and change the settings of 
the VSE SmartConnect software features.

If you use the configuration area to change the switch configuration, click on one of the but-
tons at the bottom of the window, as follows:

Some configuration screens have other buttons (such as Delete, Clear, or Search). The func-
tions of these controls are described in the sections detailing each configuration page.

In some instances where multiple BBI and/or CLI sessions are simultaneously apply-

ing and reverting configuration changes, the next use of the Apply, Save, or Revert Apply 
command may not function as expected unless another configuration item is updated.

Configuration Buttons

Apply

When altering fields in the configuration area, your changes are “pend-
ing” and do not take effect until you click the Apply button. Once 
applied, all configuration changes take effect on the switch immedi-
ately. However, if you do not also save the changes, they will be lost the 
next time the switch is rebooted or whenever the Revert Apply com-
mand is given.

Save

Writes the applied configuration changes to non-volatile flash memory 
on the switch so that the configuration is retained beyond reboot or 
power cycles.

Revert Apply

Clears any unsaved configuration changes, whether applied or not. Use 
this command to return all configuration fields to their last saved state.
