The source-file-name parameter specifies the name of the file that is copied from the IPv6 TFTP
server.
The overwrite keyword specifies that the device should overwrite the current configuration file with the
copied file. If you do not specify this parameter, the device copies the file into the current running or
startup configuration but does not overwrite the current configuration.
IPv6 copy command
The copy command for IPv6 allows you to do the following:
• Copy a primary or secondary boot image from flash memory to an IPv6 TFTP server.
• Copy the running configuration to an IPv6 TFTP server.
• Copy the startup configuration to an IPv6 TFTP server
• Upload various files from an IPv6 TFTP server.
Copying a primary or secondary boot Image from flash memory to an IPv6 TFTP server
For example, to copy the primary or secondary boot image from the device flash memory to an IPv6
TFTP server, enter a command such as the following.
device#copy flash primary tftp 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 primary.img
This command copies the primary boot image named primary.img from flash memory to a TFTP
server with the IPv6 address of 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3.
Syntax: copy flash primary | secondary tftp ipv6-address source-file-name
The primary keyword specifies the primary boot image, while the secondary keyword specifies the
secondary boot image.
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 source-file-name parameter specifies the name of the file you want to copy from flash memory.
Copying the running or startup configuration to an IPv6 TFTP server
For example, to copy a device running or startup configuration to an IPv6 TFTP server, enter a
command such as the following.
device#copy running-config tftp 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 bakrun.cfg
This command copies a device running configuration to a TFTP server with the IPv6 address of
2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 and names the destination file bakrun.cfg.
Syntax: copy running-config | startup-config tftp ipv6-address destination-file-name
Specify the running-config keyword to copy the device running configuration or the startup-config
keyword to copy the device startup configuration.
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 running configuration that is copied to
the IPv6 TFTP server.
