Information About Performing Switch Setup Configuration

Review the sections in this module before performing your initial switch configuration tasks that include IP address assignments and DHCP autoconfiguration.

Switch Boot Process

To start your switch, you need to follow the procedures in the hardware installation guide for installing and powering on the switch and setting up the initial switch configuration (IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, secret and Telnet passwords, and so forth).

The normal boot process involves the operation of the boot loader software and includes these activities:

  • Locates the bootable (base) package in the bundle or installed package set.
  • Performs low-level CPU initialization. It initializes the CPU registers, which control where physical memory is mapped, its quantity, its speed, and so forth.
  • Performs power-on self-test (POST) for the CPU subsystem and tests the system DRAM.
  • Initializes the file systems on the system board.
  • Loads a default operating system software image into memory and boots up the switch.

The boot loader provides access to the file systems before the operating system is loaded. Normally, the boot loader is used only to load, decompress, and start the operating system. After the boot loader gives the operating system control of the CPU, the boot loader is not active until the next system reset or power-on.

The boot loader also provides trap-door access into the system if the operating system has problems serious enough that it cannot be used. The trap-door mechanism provides enough access to the system so that if it is necessary, you can reinstall the operating system software image by using the emergency-install command and restart the operating system.

Before you can assign switch information, make sure you have connected a PC or terminal to the console port or a PC to the Ethernet management port, and make sure you have configured the PC or terminal-emulation software baud rate and character format to match these of the switch console port:

  • Baud rate default is 9600.
  • Data bits default is 8.

    Note

    If the data bits option is set to 8, set the parity option to none.

  • Stop bits default is 2 (minor).
  • Parity settings default is none.

Software Installer Features

The following software installer features are supported on your switch:

  • Software bundle installation on a standalone switch, a switch stack, or a subset of switches in a stack. The default is installation on all the switches if a switch stack is configured.
  • In a stack of switches, Cisco recommends all switches in install mode.
  • Software rollback to a previously installed package set.
  • Emergency installation in the event that no valid installed packages reside on the boot flash.
  • Auto-upgrade of a switch that joins the switch stack with incompatible software.
  • Installation using packages on one switch as the source for installing packages on another switch in the switch stack.

Note

Software installation and rollback must be performed while running only in installed mode. You can use the software expand EXEC command to convert bundle boot mode to install mode.

Software Boot Modes

Your switch supports two modes to boot the software packages:

  • Installed mode
  • Bundle mode
Related References

Installed Boot Mode

You can boot your switch in installed mode by booting the software package provisioning file that resides in flash:

switch: boot flash:packages.conf

The provisioning file contains a list of software packages to boot, mount, and run. The ISO file system in each installed package is mounted to the root file system directly from flash.


Note

The packages and provisioning file used to boot in installed mode must reside in flash. Booting in installed mode from usbflash0: or tftp: is not supported.

Bundle Boot Mode

You can boot your switch in bundle boot mode by booting the bundle (.bin) file:

switch:  boot flash:cat3850-universalk9.SSA.03.08.83.EMD.150-8.83.EMD.bin

The provisioning file contained in a bundle is used to decide which packages to boot, mount, and run. Packages are extracted from the bundle and copied to RAM. The ISO file system in each package is mounted to the root file system.

Unlike install boot mode, additional memory that is equivalent to the size of the bundle is used when booting in bundle mode.

Unlike install boot mode, bundle boot mode is available from several locations:
  • flash:
  • usbflash0:
  • tftp:

Note

Auto install and smart install functionality is not supported in bundle boot mode.


Note

The AP image pre-download feature is not supported in bundle boot mode. For more information about the pre-download feature see the Cisco WLC 5700 Series Preloading an Image to Access Points chapter.

Boot Mode for a Switch Stack

All the switches in a stack must be running in installed mode or bundle boot mode. A mixed mode stack is not supported. If a new switch tries to join the stack in a different boot mode then the active switch, the new switch is given a V-mismatch state.

If a mixed mode switch stack is booted at the same time, then all the switches except for the active switch is given a V-mismatch state. If the boot mode does not support auto-upgrade, then the switch stack members must be re-booted in the same boot mode as the active switch.

If the stack is running in installed mode, the auto-upgrade feature can be used to automatically upgrade the new switch that is attempting to join the switch stack.

The auto-upgrade feature changes the boot mode of the new switch to installed mode. If the stack is running in bundle boot mode, the auto-upgrade feature is not available. You will be required to use the bundle mode to boot the new switch so that it can join the switch stack.

This is an example of the state of a switch that attempts to join the switch stack when the boot mode is not compatible with the active switch:

Switch# show switch

Switch/Stack Mac Address : 6400.f125.1100 - Local Mac Address
Mac persistency wait time: Indefinite
H/W Current

*2       Active 6400.f125.1100   1        V01      Ready
Switch

Switches Information Assignment

You can assign IP information through the switch setup program, through a DHCP server, or manually.

Use the switch setup program if you want to be prompted for specific IP information. With this program, you can also configure a hostname and an enable secret password.

It gives you the option of assigning a Telnet password (to provide security during remote management) and configuring your switch as a command or member switch of a cluster or as a standalone switch.

The switch stack is managed through a single IP address. The IP address is a system-level setting and is not specific to the stack master or to any other stack member. You can still manage the stack through the same IP address even if you remove the stack master or any other stack member from the stack, provided there is IP connectivity.


Note

Stack members retain their IP address when you remove them from a switch stack. To avoid a conflict by having two devices with the same IP address in your network, change the IP address of the switch that you removed from the switch stack.

Use a DHCP server for centralized control and automatic assignment of IP information after the server is configured.


Note

If you are using DHCP, do not respond to any of the questions in the setup program until the switch receives the dynamically assigned IP address and reads the configuration file.

If you are an experienced user familiar with the switch configuration steps, manually configure the switch. Otherwise, use the setup program described in the Boot Process section.

DHCP-Based Autoconfiguration Overview

DHCP provides configuration information to Internet hosts and internetworking devices. This protocol consists of two components: one for delivering configuration parameters from a DHCP server to a device and an operation for allocating network addresses to devices. DHCP is built on a client-server model, in which designated DHCP servers allocate network addresses and deliver configuration parameters to dynamically configured devices. The switch can act as both a DHCP client and a DHCP server.

During DHCP-based autoconfiguration, your switch (DHCP client) is automatically configured at startup with IP address information and a configuration file.

With DHCP-based autoconfiguration, no DHCP client-side configuration is needed on your switch. However, you need to configure the DHCP server for various lease options associated with IP addresses.

If you want to use DHCP client autoconfiguration, you need to configure a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server to fetch the configuration file. The DHCP client then applies the new configuration file to its running configuration.


Note

If the new configuration is downloaded to a switch that already has a configuration, the downloaded configuration is appended to the configuration file stored on the switch. (Any existing configuration is not overwritten by the downloaded one.)


Note

We recommend a redundant connection between a switch stack and the DHCP, DNS, and TFTP servers. This is to help ensure that these servers remain accessible in case one of the connected stack members is removed from the switch stack.

The DHCP server for your switch can be on the same LAN or on a different LAN than the switch. If the DHCP server is running on a different LAN, you should configure a DHCP relay device between your switch and the DHCP server. A relay device forwards broadcast traffic between two directly connected LANs. A router does not forward broadcast packets, but it forwards packets based on the destination IP address in the received packet.

DHCP-based autoconfiguration replaces the BOOTP client functionality on your switch.

DHCP Client Request Process

When you boot up your switch, the DHCP client is invoked and requests configuration information from a DHCP server when the configuration file is not present on the switch. If the configuration file is present and the configuration includes the ip address dhcp interface configuration command on specific routed interfaces, the DHCP client is invoked and requests the IP address information for those interfaces.

This is the sequence of messages that are exchanged between the DHCP client and the DHCP server.

Figure 1. DHCP Client and Server Message Exchange

The client, Switch A, broadcasts a DHCPDISCOVER message to locate a DHCP server. The DHCP server offers configuration parameters (such as an IP address, subnet mask, gateway IP address, DNS IP address, a lease for the IP address, and so forth) to the client in a DHCPOFFER unicast message.

In a DHCPREQUEST broadcast message, the client returns a formal request for the offered configuration information to the DHCP server. The formal request is broadcast so that all other DHCP servers that received the DHCPDISCOVER broadcast message from the client can reclaim the IP addresses that they offered to the client.

The DHCP server confirms that the IP address has been allocated to the client by returning a DHCPACK unicast message to the client. With this message, the client and server are bound, and the client uses configuration information received from the server. The amount of information the switch receives depends on how you configure the DHCP server.

If the configuration parameters sent to the client in the DHCPOFFER unicast message are invalid (a configuration error exists), the client returns a DHCPDECLINE broadcast message to the DHCP server.

The DHCP server sends the client a DHCPNAK denial broadcast message, which means that the offered configuration parameters have not been assigned, that an error has occurred during the negotiation of the parameters, or that the client has been slow in responding to the DHCPOFFER message (the DHCP server assigned the parameters to another client).

A DHCP client might receive offers from multiple DHCP or BOOTP servers and can accept any of the offers; however, the client usually accepts the first offer it receives. The offer from the DHCP server is not a guarantee that the IP address is allocated to the client; however, the server usually reserves the address until the client has had a chance to formally request the address. If the switch accepts replies from a BOOTP server and configures itself, the switch broadcasts, instead of unicasts, TFTP requests to obtain the switch configuration file.

The DHCP hostname option allows a group of switches to obtain hostnames and a standard configuration from the central management DHCP server. A client (switch) includes in its DCHPDISCOVER message an option 12 field used to request a hostname and other configuration parameters from the DHCP server. The configuration files on all clients are identical except for their DHCP-obtained hostnames.

If a client has a default hostname (the hostname name global configuration command is not configured or the no hostname global configuration command is entered to remove the hostname), the DHCP hostname option is not included in the packet when you enter the ip address dhcp interface configuration command. In this case, if the client receives the DCHP hostname option from the DHCP interaction while acquiring an IP address for an interface, the client accepts the DHCP hostname option and sets the flag to show that the system now has a hostname configured.

DHCP-based Autoconfiguration and Image Update

You can use the DHCP image upgrade features to configure a DHCP server to download both a new image and a new configuration file to one or more switches in a network. Simultaneous image and configuration upgrade for all switches in the network helps ensure that each new switch added to a network are synchronous with the network.

There are two types of DHCP image upgrades: DHCP autoconfiguration and DHCP auto-image update.

Restrictions for DHCP-based Autoconfiguration

  • The DHCP-based autoconfiguration with a saved configuration process stops if there is not at least one Layer 3 interface in an up state without an assigned IP address in the network.
  • Unless you configure a timeout, the DHCP-based autoconfiguration with a saved configuration feature tries indefinitely to download an IP address.
  • The auto-install process stops if a configuration file cannot be downloaded or if the configuration file is corrupted.
  • The configuration file that is downloaded from TFTP is merged with the existing configuration in the running configuration but is not saved in the NVRAM unless you enter the write memory or copy running-configuration startup-configuration privileged EXEC command. If the downloaded configuration is saved to the startup configuration, the feature is not triggered during subsequent system restarts.

DHCP Autoconfiguration

DHCP autoconfiguration downloads a configuration file to one or more switches in your network from a DHCP server. The downloaded configuration file becomes the running configuration of the switch. It does not over write the bootup configuration saved in the flash, until you reload the switch.

DHCP Auto-Image Update

You can use DHCP auto-image upgrade with DHCP autoconfiguration to download both a configuration and a new image to one or more switches in your network. The switch (or switches) downloading the new configuration and the new image can be blank (or only have a default factory configuration loaded).

To enable a DHCP auto-image update on the switch, the TFTP server where the image and configuration files are located must be configured with the correct option 67 (the configuration filename), option 66 (the DHCP server hostname) option 150 (the TFTP server address), and option 125 (description of the Cisco IOS image file) settings.

After you install the switch in your network, the auto-image update feature starts. The downloaded configuration file is saved in the running configuration of the switch, and the new image is downloaded and installed on the switch. When you reboot the switch, the configuration is stored in the saved configuration on the switch.

DHCP Server Configuration Guidelines

Follow these guidelines if you are configuring a device as a DHCP server:

  • You should configure the DHCP server with reserved leases that are bound to each switch by the switch hardware address.
  • If you want the switch to receive IP address information, you must configure the DHCP server with these lease options:
    • IP address of the client (required)
    • Subnet mask of the client (required)
    • DNS server IP address (optional)
    • Router IP address (default gateway address to be used by the switch) (required)
  • If you want the switch to receive the configuration file from a TFTP server, you must configure the DHCP server with these lease options:
    • TFTP server name (required)
    • Boot filename (the name of the configuration file that the client needs) (recommended)
    • Hostname (optional)
  • Depending on the settings of the DHCP server, the switch can receive IP address information, the configuration file, or both.
  • If you do not configure the DHCP server with the lease options described previously, it replies to client requests with only those parameters that are configured. If the IP address and the subnet mask are not in the reply, the switch is not configured. If the router IP address or the TFTP server name are not found, the switch might send broadcast, instead of unicast, TFTP requests. Unavailability of other lease options does not affect autoconfiguration.
  • The switch can act as a DHCP server. By default, the Cisco IOS DHCP server and relay agent features are enabled on your switch but are not configured.

Purpose of the TFTP Server

Based on the DHCP server configuration, the switch attempts to download one or more configuration files from the TFTP server. If you configured the DHCP server to respond to the switch with all the options required for IP connectivity to the TFTP server, and if you configured the DHCP server with a TFTP server name, address, and configuration filename, the switch attempts to download the specified configuration file from the specified TFTP server.

If you did not specify the configuration filename, the TFTP server, or if the configuration file could not be downloaded, the switch attempts to download a configuration file by using various combinations of filenames and TFTP server addresses. The files include the specified configuration filename (if any) and these files: network-config, cisconet.cfg, hostname.config, or hostname.cfg, where hostname is the switch’s current hostname. The TFTP server addresses used include the specified TFTP server address (if any) and the broadcast address (255.255.255.255).

For the switch to successfully download a configuration file, the TFTP server must contain one or more configuration files in its base directory. The files can include these files:

  • The configuration file named in the DHCP reply (the actual switch configuration file).
  • The network-confg or the cisconet.cfg file (known as the default configuration files).
  • The router-confg or the ciscortr.cfg file (These files contain commands common to all switches. Normally, if the DHCP and TFTP servers are properly configured, these files are not accessed.)

If you specify the TFTP server name in the DHCP server-lease database, you must also configure the TFTP server name-to-IP-address mapping in the DNS-server database.

If the TFTP server to be used is on a different LAN from the switch, or if it is to be accessed by the switch through the broadcast address (which occurs if the DHCP server response does not contain all the required information described previously), a relay must be configured to forward the TFTP packets to the TFTP server. The preferred solution is to configure the DHCP server with all the required information.

Purpose of the DNS Server

The DHCP server uses the DNS server to resolve the TFTP server name to an IP address. You must configure the TFTP server name-to-IP address map on the DNS server. The TFTP server contains the configuration files for the switch.

You can configure the IP addresses of the DNS servers in the lease database of the DHCP server from where the DHCP replies will retrieve them. You can enter up to two DNS server IP addresses in the lease database.

The DNS server can be on the same LAN or on a different LAN from the switch. If it is on a different LAN, the switch must be able to access it through a router.

How to Obtain Configuration Files

Depending on the availability of the IP address and the configuration filename in the DHCP reserved lease, the switch obtains its configuration information in these ways:

  • The IP address and the configuration filename is reserved for the switch and provided in the DHCP reply (one-file read method). The switch receives its IP address, subnet mask, TFTP server address, and the configuration filename from the DHCP server. The switch sends a unicast message to the TFTP server to retrieve the named configuration file from the base directory of the server and upon receipt, it completes its boot up process.
  • The IP address and the configuration filename is reserved for the switch, but the TFTP server address is not provided in the DHCP reply (one-file read method). The switch receives its IP address, subnet mask, and the configuration filename from the DHCP server. The switch sends a broadcast message to a TFTP server to retrieve the named configuration file from the base directory of the server, and upon receipt, it completes its boot-up process.
  • Only the IP address is reserved for the switch and provided in the DHCP reply. The configuration filename is not provided (two-file read method). The switch receives its IP address, subnet mask, and the TFTP server address from the DHCP server. The switch sends a unicast message to the TFTP server to retrieve the network-confg or cisconet.cfg default configuration file. (If the network-confg file cannot be read, the switch reads the cisconet.cfg file.) The default configuration file contains the hostnames-to-IP-address mapping for the switch. The switch fills its host table with the information in the file and obtains its hostname. If the hostname is not found in the file, the switch uses the hostname in the DHCP reply. If the hostname is not specified in the DHCP reply, the switch uses the default Switch as its hostname. After obtaining its hostname from the default configuration file or the DHCP reply, the switch reads the configuration file that has the same name as its hostname (hostname-confg or hostname.cfg, depending on whether network-confg or cisconet.cfg was read earlier) from the TFTP server. If the cisconet.cfg file is read, the filename of the host is truncated to eight characters. If the switch cannot read the network-confg, cisconet.cfg, or the hostname file, it reads the router-confg file. If the switch cannot read the router-confg file, it reads the ciscortr.cfg file.

Note

The switch broadcasts TFTP server requests if the TFTP server is not obtained from the DHCP replies, if all attempts to read the configuration file through unicast transmissions fail, or if the TFTP server name cannot be resolved to an IP address.

How to Control Environment Variables

With a normally operating switch, you enter the boot loader mode only through the console connection configured for 9600 bps. Unplug the switch power cord, and press the Mode button while reconnecting the power cord. You can release the Mode button after all the amber system LEDs turn on and remain solid. The boot loader switch prompt then appears.

The switch boot loader software provides support for nonvolatile environment variables, which can be used to control how the boot loader, or any other software running on the system, operates. Boot loader environment variables are similar to environment variables that can be set on UNIX or DOS systems.

Environment variables that have values are stored in flash memory outside of the flash file system.

Each line in these files contains an environment variable name and an equal sign followed by the value of the variable. A variable has no value if it is not present; it has a value if it is listed even if the value is a null string. A variable that is set to a null string (for example, “ ”) is a variable with a value. Many environment variables are predefined and have default values.

You can change the settings of the environment variables by accessing the boot loader or by using Cisco IOS commands. Under normal circumstances, it is not necessary to alter the setting of the environment variables.

Environment Variables for TFTP

When the switch is connected to a PC through the Ethernet management port, you can download or upload a configuration file to the boot loader by using TFTP. Make sure the environment variables in this table are configured.

Table 2 Environment Variables for TFTP

Variable

Description

MAC_ADDR

Specifies the MAC address of the switch.

Note   

We recommend that you do not modify this variable.

However, if you modify this variable after the boot loader is up or the value is different from the saved value, enter this command before using TFTP.

IP_ADDR

Specifies the IP address and the subnet mask for the associated IP subnet of the switch.

DEFAULT_ROUTER

Specifies the IP address and subnet mask of the default gateway.

Scheduled Reload of the Software Image

You can schedule a reload of the software image to occur on the switch at a later time (for example, late at night or during the weekend when the switch is used less), or you can synchronize a reload network-wide (for example, to perform a software upgrade on all switches in the network).


Note

A scheduled reload must take place within approximately 24 days.

You have these reload options:

  • Reload of the software to take affect in the specified minutes or hours and minutes. The reload must take place within approximately 24 hours. You can specify the reason for the reload in a string up to 255 characters in length.
  • Reload of the software to take place at the specified time (using a 24-hour clock). If you specify the month and day, the reload is scheduled to take place at the specified time and date. If you do not specify the month and day, the reload takes place at the specified time on the current day (if the specified time is later than the current time) or on the next day (if the specified time is earlier than the current time). Specifying 00:00 schedules the reload for midnight.

The reload command halts the system. If the system is not set to manually boot up, it reboots itself.

If your switch is configured for manual booting, do not reload it from a virtual terminal. This restriction prevents the switch from entering the boot loader mode and then taking it from the remote user’s control.

If you modify your configuration file, the switch prompts you to save the configuration before reloading. During the save operation, the system requests whether you want to proceed with the save if the CONFIG_FILE environment variable points to a startup configuration file that no longer exists. If you proceed in this situation, the system enters setup mode upon reload.

To cancel a previously scheduled reload, use the reload cancel privileged EXEC command.

How to Perform Switch Setup Configuration

Using DHCP to download a new image and a new configuration to a switch requires that you configure at least two switches. One switch acts as a DHCP and TFTP server and the second switch (client) is configured to download either a new configuration file or a new configuration file and a new image file.

        Manually Assigning IP Information to Multiple SVIs

        This task describes how to manually assign IP information to multiple switched virtual interfaces (SVIs):


        Note

        If the switch is running the IP services feature set, you can also manually assign IP information to a port if you first put the port into Layer 3 mode by using the no switchport interface configuration command.

        SUMMARY STEPS

          1.    configure terminal

          2.    interface vlan vlan-id

          3.    ip address ip-address subnet-mask

          4.    exit

          5.    ip default-gateway ip-address

          6.    end

          7.    show interfaces vlan vlan-id

          8.    show ip redirects


        DETAILED STEPS
           Command or ActionPurpose
          Step 1configure terminal


          Example: 
          Switch# configure terminal
           

          Enters global configuration mode.

           
          Step 2interface vlan vlan-id


          Example: 
          Switch(config)# interface vlan 99
           

          Enters interface configuration mode, and enters the VLAN to which the IP information is assigned. The range is 1 to 4094.

           
          Step 3ip address ip-address subnet-mask


          Example: 
          Switch(config-vlan)# ip address 10.10.10.2 255.255.255.0
           

          Enters the IP address and subnet mask.

           
          Step 4exit


          Example: 
          Switch(config-vlan)# exit
           

          Returns to global configuration mode.

           
          Step 5ip default-gateway ip-address


          Example: 
          Switch(config)# ip default-gateway 10.10.10.1
           

          Enters the IP address of the next-hop router interface that is directly connected to the switch where a default gateway is being configured. The default gateway receives IP packets with unresolved destination IP addresses from the switch.

          Once the default gateway is configured, the switch has connectivity to the remote networks with which a host needs to communicate.

          Note   

          When your switch is configured to route with IP, it does not need to have a default gateway set.

          Note   

          The switch capwap relays on default-gateway configuration to support routed access point join the switch.

           
          Step 6end


          Example: 
          Switch(config)# end
           

          Returns to privileged EXEC mode.

           
          Step 7show interfaces vlan vlan-id


          Example: 
          Switch# show interfaces vlan 99
           

          Verifies the configured IP address.

           
          Step 8show ip redirects


          Example: 
          Switch# show ip redirects
           

          Verifies the configured default gateway.

           

          Modifying the Switch Startup Configuration

          Specifying the Filename to Read and Write the System Configuration

          By default, the Cisco IOS software uses the config.text file to read and write a nonvolatile copy of the system configuration. However, you can specify a different filename, which will be loaded during the next boot cycle.

          Before You Begin

          Use a standalone switch for this task.

          SUMMARY STEPS

            1.    configure terminal

                     Command or ActionPurpose
                    Step 1configure terminal


                    Example: 
                    Switch# configure terminal
                     

                    Enters global configuration mode.

                     
                    Step 2boot system switch {number | all} flash:image_file| tftp: image_file | usbflash0: image_file


                    Example: 
                    Switch(config)# boot system switch 2 flash:cat3850-universalk9.SSA.03.08.83.EMD.150-8.83.EMD.bin
                     

                    (Optional) For switches in a stack, specifies the switch members on which the system image is loaded during the next boot cycle:

                    • Use number to specify a stack member. (Specify only one stack member.)
                    • Use all to specify all stack members.
                     
                    Step 3end


                    Example: 
                    Switch(config)# end
                     

                    Returns to privileged EXEC mode.

                     
                    Step 4show boot system


                    Example: 
                    Switch# show boot system
                     

                    Verifies your entries.

                    The boot system global command changes the setting of the BOOT environment variable.

                    During the next boot cycle, the switch attempts to automatically boot up the system using information in the BOOT environment variable.

                     
                    Step 5copy running-config startup-config


                    Example: 
                    Switch# copy running-config startup-config
                     

                    (Optional) Saves your entries in the configuration file.

                     

                    Configuring a Scheduled Software Image Reload

                    This task describes how to configure your switch to reload the software image at a later time.

                    SUMMARY STEPS

                      1.    configure terminal

                      2.    copy running-config startup-config

                      3.    reload in [hh:]mm [text]

                      4.    reload slot [stack-member-number]

                      5.    reload at hh: mm [month day | day month] [text]

                      6.    reload cancel

                      7.    show reload


                    DETAILED STEPS
                       Command or ActionPurpose
                      Step 1configure terminal


                      Example: 
                      Switch# configure terminal
                       

                      Enters global configuration mode.

                       
                      Step 2copy running-config startup-config


                      Example:
                      copy running-config startup-config
                       

                      Saves your switch configuration information to the startup configuration before you use the reload command.

                       
                      Step 3 reload in [hh:]mm [text]


                      Example: 
                      Switch(config)# reload in 12

 System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: y
                       

                      Schedules a reload of the software to take affect in the specified minutes or hours and minutes. The reload must take place within approximately 24 days. You can specify the reason for the reload in a string up to 255 characters in length.

                       
                      Step 4 reload slot [stack-member-number]


                      Example: 
                      Switch(config)# reload slot 6

Proceed with reload? [confirm] y
                       

                      Schedules a reload of the software in a switch stack.

                       
                      Step 5reload at hh: mm [month day | day month] [text]


                      Example:
                      Switch(config)# reload at 14:00
                       

                      Specifies the time in hours and minutes for the reload to occur.

                      Note   

                      Use the at keyword only if the switch system clock has been set (through Network Time Protocol (NTP), the hardware calendar, or manually). The time is relative to the configured time zone on the switch. To schedule reloads across several switches to occur simultaneously, the time on each switch must be synchronized with NTP.

                       
                      Step 6reload cancel


                      Example:
                      Switch(config)# reload cancel
                                              		Cancels a previously scheduled reload. 
                      Step 7show reload


                      Example:
                      show reload
                       

                      Displays information about a previously scheduled reload or identifies if a reload has been scheduled on the switch.
