Various Copy Options Guidelines

• Copying an Image File from a Server to Flash Memory

Use the copy

source-url

flash://image command to copy an image file

from a server to flash memory. When the administrator copies an image

file from the server to a device, the image file is saved to the "inactive"

image. To use this image, the administrator must switch the inactive

image to the active image and reboot. The device will then use this new

image.

• Copying a Boot File from a Server to Flash Memory

Use the copy source-url boot command to copy a boot file from a server to
flash memory.

Copying a Configuration File from a Server to the Running

Configuration File
Use the copy

source-url

running-config command to load a

configuration file from a network server to the running configuration

file of the device. The commands in the loaded configuration file are

added to those in the running configuration file as if the commands

were typed in the command-line interface (CLI). The resulting

configuration file is a combination of the previous running configuration

and the loaded configuration files, with the loaded configuration file

taking precedence.

• Copying a Configuration File from a Server to the Startup Configuration

Use the copy

source-url

startup-config command to copy a

configuration file from a network server to the device startup

configuration file. The startup configuration file is replaced by the

copied configuration file.
