How to start Cisco 2911 with presaved configuration?

  • 772

I briefly configured branch router Cisco 2911 and saved config.

Unfortunately - after rerun Cisco needs "copy startup-config running-config" to read configuration (I really need this - for example to get up interface GigabitEthernet0/0).

How I can save my configuration as the permanently one and auto started?

  1. btw:

    copy startup-config running-config

    does not replace the current running-config with the startup-config, but merges both into a running-config...

    If you need to replace your current-config (e.g. rollback configuration-mistakes), you need to reboot the device or use "configure replace".

    As told by bluszcz in the comment to your question, please take a look to Configuration register value in the output of show version It should be set to 0x2102 which you can do with the config-register 0x2102 command

  3. If I'm understanding what it is you're asking, you need to execute a "copy run start" to save your running configuration to the startup configuration.
