To copy a software image file from an SCP-enabled client to the secondary flash on these devices,
enter one of the following commands.

C:\> scp FCXR08000.bin [email protected]:flash:secondary

or

c:\> scp FCXR08000.bin [email protected]:flash:sec:FCXR08000.bin

NOTE
After the copy operation is completed at the host, you do not get the command prompt back because
the switch is synchronizing the image to flash. To ensure that you have successfully copied the file,
issue the show flash command. If the copy operation is not complete, the show flash command output
will show the partition (primary or secondary) as EMPTY.

NOTE
The Brocade device supports only one SCP copy session at a time.

Copying a Software Image file from flash memory

The scp command syntax differs between device series. Use the command syntax in the appropriate
section.

To copy a software image file from the primary flash on these devices to an SCP-enabled client, enter a
command such as the following.

C:\> scp [email protected]:flash:primary

FCXR08000.bin

To copy a software image file from the secondary flash on these devices to an SCP-enabled client,
enter a command such as the following.

C:\> scp [email protected]:flash:secondary

FCXR08000.bin

Importing a digital certificate using SCP

To import a digital certificate using SCP, enter a command such as the following one:

C:\> scp certfile [email protected]:sslCert

Syntax: scp certificate-filenameuser@ip-address :sslCert

The ip-address variable is the IP address of the server from which the digital certificate file is
downloaded.

The certificate-filename variable is the file name of the digital certificate that you are importing to the
device.

The scp command can be used when TFTP access is unavailable or not permitted and the command
has an equivalent functionality to the ip ssl certificate-data-file tftp .
