be lost after the firewall reboots. In this case, you can maintain the current status of the firewall,
facilitating fault location.
Follow these steps to solve system faults:
To do...
Enter system view
Specify the system fault solving
method for the MPU
NOTE:
Rebooting the MPU reboots the firewall.
•
If an interface module encounters software faults, the solving method is always reboot, which reboots the
•
failed module.
• When system faults occur, the system fault solving method applies to only the failed module, and
rebooting the module does not interrupt the other modules.

Viewing the system fault solving method

Use the display system-failure command to display the system fault solving method.
<Sysname> display system-failure
System failure handling method: reboot

Saving the current configuration of the firewall

You can save the current configuration of the firewall in one of the following methods:
Fast saving: Executing the save command without the safely keyword. This mode saves the file more
•
quickly but is likely to lose the existing configuration file if the firewall reboots or the power fails
during the process. The fast saving mode is suitable for environments where the power supply is
stable.
Safe saving: Executing the save command with the safely keyword. The mode saves the file more
•
slowly but can retain the configuration file in the firewall even if the firewall reboots or the power
fails during the process. The safe saving mode is preferred in environments where a stable power
supply is unavailable or remote maintenance is involved.
Follow these steps to save the current configuration of the firewall:
To do...
Save the current configuration to
the specified file, but the
configuration file will not be set as
the file for the next startup
Save the current configuration to
the root directory of the storage
medium of the MPU and specify the
file as the startup configuration file
that will be used at the next system
startup
Use the command...
system-view
system-failure { maintain |
reboot }
Use the command...
save file-url [ all | slot slot-number ]
save [ safely ]
