User Guidelines
•
Up to five backup configuration files are supported on the device.
•
The location of a file system dictates the format of the source or destination URL.
•
The entire copying process may take several minutes and differs from protocol to protocol and from network
to network.
•
*.prv and *.sys files cannot be copied.
•
When the IPv6 address is a Link Local address (IPv6 address), the outgoing interface name must be
specified. The format of an IPv6 address is: <ipv6-link-local-address>%<interface-name>
interface-name = vlan<integer> | ch<integer> | isatap<integer> | <physical-port-name>
–
integer = <decimal-number> | nteger><decimal-number>
–
decimal-number = 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9
–
physical-port-name = Product specific.
Understanding Invalid Combinations of Source and Destination
Some invalid combinations of source and destination exist. Specifically, you cannot copy if one of the following
conditions exist:
The source file and destination file are the same file.
xmodem: is the destination file. The source file can be copied to image, boot and null: only.
tftp:// is the source file and destination file on the same copy.
The following table describes copy characters:
Copying an Image File from a Server to Flash Memory
To copy an image file from a server to flash memory, use the copy source-url image command.
Copying a Boot File from a Server to Flash Memory
To copy a boot file from a server to flash memory, enter the copy source-url boot command.
Copying a Configuration File from a Server to the Running Configuration File
To load a configuration file from a network server to the running configuration file of the device, enter the copy
source-url running-config command. The commands in the loaded configuration file are added to those in the
running configuration file as if the commands were typed in the command-line interface (CLI). Thus, the resulting
configuration file is a combination of the previous running configuration and the loaded configuration files with the
loaded configuration file taking precedence.
