System Management Commands

copy

This command moves (uploads/downloads) a code image or configuration file
between the switch’s flash memory and an FTP/TFTP server. It can also download a
diagnostics file or loader file from an FTP/TFTP server. When you save the system
code or configuration settings to a file on an FTP/TFTP server, that file can later be
downloaded to the switch to restore system operation. The success of the file
transfer depends on the accessibility of the FTP/TFTP server and the quality of the
network connection.

Command Usage

• The system prompts for data required to complete the copy command.
• The destination file name should not contain slashes (\ or /), the leading letter

of the file name should not be a period (.), and the maximum length for file
names on the FTP/TFTP server is 127 characters or 31 characters for files on
the switch. (Valid characters: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, “.”, “-”, “_”)

• Due to the size limit of the flash memory, the switch supports only two

operation code files.
