Description
A TFTP upload uses the TFTP client software on the switch to upload files
from the file system on the system to a TFTP server on the network. You
can use the command to upload a switch’s active boot configuration file or
any other file from the file system, such as an SSL certificate enrollment
request or a public encryption key. You can also use the command to
upload the switch’s active AT-S62 software image from the application
block to a TFTP server, though it is unlikely you would ever have need for
that function.
Note the following when performing a TFTP upload:
ˆ A TFTP upload is supported from a local, Telnet, or SSH management
session.
ˆ There must be a node on your network that contains the TFTP server
software. The uploaded file will be stored on the server.
ˆ Start the TFTP server software before you perform the command.
