How to  Saving Your Configurations 

You can manually save the file from DRAM to NVRAM by using the copy running-config startup-config com

1. Save the configuration on your router.

Router#copy run start

Destination filename [startup-config]?return

Building configuration...

This will now place the file you created into NVRAM, which will be used the next time the router

is booted up.




2. You can view this file with the show startup-config command.



Router#show start

The running configuration is stored in RAM; the startup configuration is stored in NVRAM. To display the current running configuration, enter the show running-config command. Enter the copy running-config startup-config command to save the current running configuration to the startup configuration file in NVRAM

To save that configuration, copy it to the startup configuration, which means it is stored in non-volatile RAM (NVRAM), so that the configuration is retained when you turn off the power. The deprecated command is short and single-purposed, not flexible with full options like the newer command.
