Backing Up the Cisco Router Configuration To copy the router’s configuration from a router to a TFTP server, you can use either the copy running-config tftp or the copy startup-config tftp command. Either one will back up the router configuration that’s currently running in DRAM, or that’s stored in NVRAM. Verifying the Current Configuration To verify the configuration in DRAM, use the show running-config command (sh run for short) like this: Router#sh run Building configuration… Current configuration: ! version 12.0 The current configuration information indicates that the router is now running version 12.0 of the IOS. Verifying the Stored Configuration Next, you should check the configuration stored in NVRAM. To see this, use the show startup-config command (sh start for short) like this: Router#sh start Using 366 out of 32762 bytes ! version 11.2 The second line shows you how much room your backup configuration is using. Here, we can see that NVRAM is 32KB and that only 366 bytes
