CLI: Switch-To-Switch Downloads
Where two switches in your network belong to the same series, you can
download a software image between them by initiating a
copy tftp command
from the destination switch. The options for this CLI feature include:
■
Copy from primary flash in the source to either primary or secondary in
the destination.
■
Copy from either primary or secondary flash in the source to either
primary or secondary flash in the destination.
Downloading from Primary Only.
Syntax: copy tftp flash < ip-addr > flash [ primary | secondary ]
This command (executed in the destination switch)
downloads the software flash in the source switch’s primary
flash to either the primary or secondary flash in the
destination switch.
If you do not specify either a primary or secondary flash location for the
destination, the download automatically goes to primary flash.
For example, to download a software file from primary flash in a switch with
an IP address of 10.29.227.103 to the primary flash in the destination switch,
you would execute the following command in the destination switch’s CLI:
