Does anyone know how to (if it can be done) have multiple config files stored on the router instead of on a tftp server ?
 
Hi,

I remember asking cisco about it and unfort they told me NO, it is a bit silly not having the option of having configs on demand but if you get a work around then please let me know.

Cheers
 
Depends on what you asked for and/or what you need.

You can just
Code:
copy startup-config flash:myconfig.txt
to store your configs in flash and similarly copy them back with
Code:
copy flash:myconfig.txt startup-config
and activate it with a reload.

Code:
copy flash:myconfig.txt running-config
will directly execute the config commands. But remember, that this will not remove any previous config.

You can also
Code:
copy tftp flash:myconfig.txt
to transfer your configs to flash.

Awesome. Exactly what I wanted. Works like a charm.

Thanks,

Chris
