And suppose you want to replace your running configuration with Rack1R1 file stored in flash:

Just follow the below method:-

R1#configure replace flash:Rack1R1
This will apply all necessary additions and deletions
to replace the current running configuration with the
contents of the specified configuration file, which is
assumed to be a complete configuration, not a partial
configuration. Enter Y if you are sure you want to proceed. ? [no]: Yes

Rollback Done

Rack1R1#

Note:The prompt before was R1# and after rollback the prompt is Rack1R1#

It is sometimes very useful suppose you have done a wrong QoS configuration and now you want it rollback to your old configuration just type

Rack1R1#configure replace nvram:
This will apply all necessary additions and deletions
to replace the current running configuration with the
contents of the specified configuration file, which is
assumed to be a complete configuration, not a partial
configuration. Enter Y if you are sure you want to proceed. ? [no]: Yes

 
Total number of passes: 0
Rollback Done

R1#

Note:If you have saved your configuration to the nvram: then it will not rollback,then you have
