Copying Configuration Files
If you modify your running configuration through the Command 
Line Interface (CLI) or the Web Agent, and you want your changes 
to replace your startup configuration, copy your running 
configuration to your startup configuration. Before you copy a 
running configuration over your startup configuration, copy your 
startup configuration to a file on the switch or on a TFTP server 
using the Web Agent or the Command Line Interface. On the 
switch, configuration files are automatically saved as text files using 
the *.txt extension. On a TFTP server, you can edit the startup.txt file 
using a text editor of your choice and save copies of it with or 
without a file extension.

Copying Files
Using the Configuration File Management dialog box, you can copy 
files to and from multiple locations. For example, if you modify your 
running configuration and you want to reinstate your startup 
configuration parameters, you can copy your startup configuration 
to your running configuration in volatile RAM. Also, you can 
upload configuration and other ASCII files from the switch to a TFTP 
server. Likewise, you can download files by copying files from a 
TFTP server directory to the switch or to a startup or running 
configuration file.
To copy files:

Config File Management. The Configuration File Management 
dialog box opens.
