These instructions show how to reset the running configuration of a switch (e.g. after other students have modified the running configuration) to the startup configuration of the switch. They are similar to the instructions for setting the running configuration from a file, but slightly different (mainly in terms of the ccCopySourceFileType value).

  1. Open the MIB Browser
  2. In the main menu bar click "File" and select "Load MIB" to load CISCO-CONFIG-COPY-MIB and its dependencies.

  3. Fill the following fields in the main window of the MIB Browser:
Field Value
Host 192.168.200.1 (For switch1, Other switches use different values)
Community telestudent

  1. Destroy any ccCopy table entry which may be left by a previous student by setting the .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.96.1.1.1.1.14.1 object to the value 6.

  2. Set the values of objects listed in the table below (they must be set in order from top to bottom in the table) to direct the switch to copy the configuration. Note that each Object ID starts with a dot, which is a convention required by the MIB Browser . Remember to direct the MIB Browser to Set the value (e.g. from the Operations menu or the hand-pointing-down icon) after entering the information for each object.
