Copying with ZMODEM
ZMODEM allows you to copy files from a network host over an asynchronous port. Use the
command:
to open Minicom and transfer a file. Alternatively you can specify the file name within the
command:
For example, to copy the file “july.cfg” from Flash memory using ZMODEM, use the
command:
Copying with Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
You device has a built-in HTTP client. The HTTP client enables the device to act as a
browser by sending HTTP “get” or “post” requests to an HTTP server. The client is enabled
by default.
For example, to load the file “bob.key” onto Flash from the security directory on the web
server at www.company.com, use the command:
Copying with Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)
TFTP runs over User Datagram Protocol (UDP). It is simpler and faster than FTP but has
minimal capability, such as no provisions for user authentication.
To copy a file from a TFTP server to Flash memory, enter Privileged Exec mode and enter
the command:
The switch prompts you for the:
■ TFTP server hostname (you can enter its IP address instead)
■ source filename on the TFTP server
■ destination filename in Flash on the switch
To copy a file from Flash to a TFTP server, enter the command:
Follow the prompts for source filename, server, and destination filename.

Note You can specify the server and filename in the command instead of waiting for
prompts. Use a format like the following:
copy tftp://172.1.1.1/example.cfg flash
