passwd

Specifies the account password when you use the FTP protocol. Quotation
marks are optional.

-local

Uploads a specified configuration file to a predetermined directory on the
local chassis. This option requires a file name.

-USB | -U

Uploads a specified configuration file to a predetermined directory on an
attached USB device. This option requires a file name.

file

Specifies the file name. Quotation marks are optional. This parameter is valid
only with the -local or -USB options, each of which stores files in a
predetermined directory on the local chassis or on an attached USB device.
Therefore, subdirectories and absolute path names are not permitted.

-force

Overwrites an existing file without confirmation. This parameter is valid only
with the -local or -USB options.

When invoked without operands or without “host” or “file” parameters, configUpload runs in
interactive mode. When invoked without any of the parameters -all, -fid, or -chassis, only the switch
configuration for the current logical switch is uploaded.
