Save Your Switch Info!
Yesterday I spent about 2 hours configuring all sorts of crap in the new network switch… port assignments/names, QoS, SNMP crap, etc.
I forgot that even though changes you make are applied right away, they are lost if you power cycle the equipment. Hahaha… whoops!
Don’t forget this, I know I won’t ever forget it again.
