Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

If the configuration file on the device is incompatible with the upgraded software, run the reset saved-configuration command to clear the configuration file and run the startup saved-configuration command to specify a new configuration file.
If the device in use is applied to another scenario and the original configuration file of the device does not meet requirements in the scenario, run the reset saved-configuration command to clear the existing configuration file and restart the device to restore its factory configurations.

Precautions

After you run the reset saved-configuration command, the next startup configuration file is cleared and the file is not used for next startup. If the current startup configuration file is the same as the next startup configuration file, the current startup configuration file is also cleared.
If you do not use the startup saved-configuration command to specify a new configuration file or do not save the configuration file after the file is not used for next startup, the device uses default factory configurations for startup.
If the current configuration file is empty, and the configuration file for the next startup is not empty, running the reset saved-configuration command clears the settings for the configuration file for the next startup.
If the configuration file for the next startup is empty, and the current configuration file is not empty, after the reset saved-configuration command is run, the system prompts an error and no settings are cleared.
Exercise caution when you run the reset saved-configuration command.

Example

# Clear the next startup configuration file in the storage device and cancel the configuration file used for next startup.
