Hi,

I'd like to save config when config is different, e.g. run 'wr mem' on
cisco. There is a flag do_saveconfig on clogin. I changed it to 1, nothing
happens.

Is it possible to set it somewhere else?

Thanks,

john heasley

it only works for a few of the platforms that prompt to save the config,
such as force10, cisco css, hp procurve, etc. ios does not prompt.

You have to "logout" from manager level to get save config prompt.

that is not sufficient. logout does not work in previous s/w, so it must
try one then the other.
