Conf t

when we edit the configuration of a switch from cli does it saved in boot configuration or in running configuration.

for eg. I have changed the port description

conf t

interface fc1/1

switchport desc hab01

exit

exit

now will the name of the port 1/1 will be retained whent the switch reboots.

because when we do this change via GUI, it ask for "Do you need to save details in boot configuration" so we obviously press yes because we want to retain the values after reboot.

It is saved to the running config.

To save to the boot config, you need to run the command:

copy run start

This will copy the running config to the startup config so that on a switch reboot it will remain.
