In this scenario, I would by any means, copy your running-config
somewhere, no TFTP ? then local console or from inside firewall.
I still don't know if you could backup your running-config just from local
console, I know you could do IOS image from console alone, so, I don't see
why you could do it for run and start files.
Anyways, backup that running-config and then make the changes you want
startup-config to have, then write mem, copy back your original
running-config and that should be it.
If non of these is posible, then talk to the firewall admin guys
to aloud extended ip access list for TFTP port, or standard ip access list
pointing to your IP address if security is a concern.

Subject: changing startup configs without changing running configs
Something someone got me thinking about today - management wanted a change
to the startup, but not the running config - (they'd reboot later) - don't
ask me why.
Anyway, TFTP is blocked from the firewall, so we're not copying it to the
TFTP server and back as originally planned, and I thought config m. would
work, but it's a no go. Can anyone think of a way to change the startup
config but not implementing those changes in the running config. (I'm not
asking WHY someone would do this, just if it's possible)
