Keyword

Source or destination

running-config

Represents the current running configuration file.

startup-config Represents

the

startup configuration file.

backup-config Represents

the

backup configuration file.

Image

The image is executable code which is decompressed during system startup, into the

switching and routing software that manages the device. There are always two

images stored in the device flash known as "image-1" and "image-2". The images do

not necessarily have to contain the same versions of the software. One of these

images is always marked as active and the other image serves as a back-up. The

"active" image is either the last downloaded image or the image configured as the

"active" image. The switch boot code first tries to load and run the active image.

However, if the active image is found to be corrupt, the boot code tries to load the

back-up image. If the backup image is also corrupt the boot code prompts the user to

initiate the Xmodem

transfer of a valid image through the serial connection. The image file name is in the

format 6024_abcd.dos, where abcd represents the release number.

boot

Boot file. The name of the image is in the format 6024_boot_abcd.rfb, where

abcd represents the release number.

tftp

Source or destination URL for a TFTP network server. The syntax for this alias

is tftp:[[//location]/directory]/filename.

Xmodem

Source for the file from a serial connection that uses the Xmodem protocol.

null

Null destination for copies or files. A remote file can be copied to null to determine its

size.

User Guidelines

The location of a file system dictates the format of the source or destination URL.

The startup-config and the backup-config files cannot be copied to the running-config file.

The entire copying process may take several minutes and differs from protocol to protocol and from network to network.

Filenames cannot be a substring of "startup-config" or "running-config". e.g. the following filenames are not allowed: "s", "st",

"sta".
