Specify the startup-config keyword to copy the startup configuration file to the specified IPv6 TFTP
server.

The tftp ipv6-address parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify this
address in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.

The destination-file-name parameter specifies the name of the file that is copied to the IPv6 TFTP
server.

Copying a file from an IPv6 TFTP server

You can copy a file from an IPv6 TFTP server to the following destinations:

• Flash memory
• Running configuration
• Startup configuration

Copying a file to flash memory

For example, to copy a boot image from an IPv6 TFTP server to the primary or secondary storage
location in the device flash memory, enter a command such as the following.

device#copy tftp flash 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 test.img secondary

This command copies a boot image named test.img from an IPv6 TFTP server with the IPv6 address of
2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 to the secondary storage location in the device flash memory.

Syntax: copy tftp flash ipv6-address source-file-name primary | secondary

The ipv6-address parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify this address in
hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.

The source-file-name parameter specifies the name of the file you want to copy from the IPv6 TFTP
server.

The primary keyword specifies the primary storage location in the device flash memory, while the
secondary keyword specifies the secondary storage location in the device flash memory.

Copying a file to the running or startup configuration

For example, to copy a configuration file from an IPv6 TFTP server to the running or startup
configuration, enter a command such as the following.

device#copy tftp running-config 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 newrun.cfg overwrite

This command copies the newrun.cfg file from the IPv6 TFTP server and overwrites the running
configuration file with the contents of newrun.cfg.

NOTE
To activate this configuration, you must reload (reset) the device.

Syntax:copy tftp running-config | startup-config ipv6-address source-file-name [ overwrite ]

Specify the running-config keyword to copy the running configuration from the specified IPv6 TFTP
server.

The ipv6-address parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify this address in
hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
