6. Save the Conguration
In switch, the running conguration le stores in the RAM. In the current version,
the running conguration sequence running-cong can be saved from the RAM to
FLASH by write command or copy running-cong startup-cong command, so
that the running conguration sequence becomes the start up conguration le,
which is called conguration save.
1. On “WGSW-28040(cong)#” prompt, enter “copy running-cong startup-
cong”. As show in Figure 6-1.

7. Start Web Management
The following shows how to start up the Web Management of the WGSW
Managed Switch. Note the WGSW Managed Switch is congured through an
Ethernet connection, please make sure the manager PC must be set on the same
IP subnet address.
For example, the default IP address of the WGSW Managed Switch is
192.168.0.100, then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.0.x (where x
is a number between 1 and 254, except 100), and the default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
