1.4 Router Configurations
Whenever we change the router configuration , it is required to save the changes to the configuration files . This router losses the modified configuration on reload or power failure , if the changes are not saved . The configuration files also contain the commands that are used to configure the router . These files are of two types running configuration and startup configuration . The configuration files are located in the RAM,NVRAM or TFTP server. The currently operating configuration of the router is located in RAM . The backup and saved configuration are either located in NVRAM or TFTP server.
