Using the IPv6 copy command
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’s flash memory, enter a command such as the following.
Brocade# copy tftp flash ipv6 2001:db8:e0ff:7837::3 test.img secondary
This command copies an application 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’s flash memory.
Syntax: copy tftp flash ipv6 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’s flash memory, while the
secondary keyword specifies the secondary storage location in the device’s 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 router’s running or startup
configuration, enter a command such as the following.
Brocade# copy tftp running-config ipv6 2001:db8:e0ff:7837::3 newrun.cfg overwrite
This command copies the newrun.cfg file from the IPv6 TFTP server and overwrites the router’s
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 source-file-name [overwrite]
Specify the running-config keyword to copy the running configuration from the specified IPv6 TFTP
server.
Specify the startup-config keyword to copy the startup 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.
The source-file-name parameter specifies the name of the file that is copied from the IPv6 TFTP
server.
