Hi Bill,
I want to be sure you are taking advantage of the newer switch firmware version 1.1.0.73 for your new switch.

But, to answer your question, you need to save your running configuration to the switches non volitile memory. The Admin guide on page 6 warns;
CAUTION Unless the Running Configuration is copied to the Startup Configuration, all changes made since the last time the file was saved are lost if the switch is rebooted. Save the Running Configuration to the Startup Configuration before logging off to preserve any changes you made during this session.
A flashing red X icon displayed to the left of the 'Save' application link indicates that Running Configuration changes have been made that have not yet been saved to the Startup Configuration file. The flashing can be disabled by clicking on the Disable Save Icon Blinking button on the Copy/Save Configuration page

reference Quick Start Guide
Alternatively, go to the File management section of the GUI and copy the running configuration to the startup configuration. This will save any changes you dynamically made to the switch to a file in the switch. (This startup file is read as the switch boots up.)
Even though the screen capture below was taken from the 200 series bigger brother the 300 series, the save function should be pretty much identical to your switch. Note the save icon I have highlighted in red.
Also note, I have the GUI section displayed that shows copying the running configuration in the switch to a startup configuration location within the switch. This GUI is not identical to the 200 series switch as the 300 series switch family has more functions compared to the 200 series switch.
regards Dave
