IPv6 management (IPv6 host support)
TurboIron#copy tftp flash 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 test.img secondary
This command copies a boot image named test.img from an IPv6 TFTP server with the IPv6
address of 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 to the secondary storage location in the device flash memory.
Syntax: copy tftp flash <ipv6-address> <source-file-name> primary | secondary
• The <ipv6-address> parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify this
address in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
• The <source-file-name> parameter specifies the name of the file you want to copy from the
IPv6 TFTP server.
• The primary keyword specifies the primary storage location in the device flash memory, while
the secondary keyword specifies the secondary storage location in the device flash memory.
Copying a file to the running or startup configuration
For example, to copy a configuration file from an IPv6 TFTP server to the router running or startup
configuration, enter a command such as the following.
TurboIron#copy tftp running-config 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 newrun.cfg overwrite
This command copies the new runing .oncfig file from the IPv6 TFTP server and overwrites the
router running configuration file with the contents of newrun.cfg.
NOTE
To activate this configuration, you must reload (reset) the device.
Syntax: copy tftp running-config | startup-config <ipv6-address> <source-file-name> [overwrite]
• Specify the running-config keyword to copy the running configuration from the specified IPv6
TFTP server.
• Specify the startup-config keyword to copy the startup configuration from the specified IPv6
TFTP server.
• The <ipv6-address> parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify this
address in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
• The <source-file-name> parameter specifies the name of the file that is copied from the IPv6
TFTP server.
• The overwrite keyword specifies that the device should overwrite the current configuration file
with the copied file. If you do not specify this parameter, the device copies the file into the
current running or startup configuration but does not overwrite the current configuration.
NOTE
You cannot use the overwrite option from non-console sessions, because it will disconnect the
session.
Using the IPv6 ncopy command
The ncopy command for IPv6 allows you to do the following:
• Copy a primary or secondary boot image from flash memory to an IPv6 TFTP server.
• Copy the running configuration to an IPv6 TFTP server.
• Copy the startup configuration to an IPv6 TFTP server
• Upload various files from an IPv6 TFTP server.
