Example file transfers using SCP
The following are examples of using SCP to transfer files to and from a Brocade device.
Copying a file to the running config
To copy a configuration file (c:\cfg\brocade.cfg) to the running configuration file on a Brocade device at
10.168.1.50 and log in as user terry, enter the following command on the SCP-enabled client.
C:\> scp c:\cfg\brocade.cfg [email protected]:runConfig
If password authentication is enabled for SSH, the user is prompted for user terry password before the

SCP-enabled client, enter the following command.
C:\> scp [email protected]:runConfig c:\cfg\brcdrun.cfg
Copying the startup config file to an SCP-enabled client
To copy the startup configuration file on the Brocade device to a file called c:\cfg\brcdestart.cfg on the
