Downloading Switch Software

Syntax: no tftp-enable

This command disables all TFTP operation on the switch except for the auto-TFTP
feature. To re-enable TFTP operation, use the

tftp-enable command. When TFTP is

disabled, the instances of

tftp in the CLI copy command and the Menu interface

“Download OS” screen become unavailable.

Note: This command does not disable auto-TFTP operation. To disable an auto-
TFTP command configured on the switch, use the

no auto-tftp command described

below to remove the command entry from the switch’s configuration.

Syntax: no auto-tftp

If auto-TFTP is configured on the switch, this command deletes the

auto-tftp entry

from the switch configuration, thus preventing auto-tftp operation if the switch
reboots.
Note: This command does not affect the current TFTP-enable configuration on the
switch.

Command Options

If you need to enable SSH v2 (which is required for SFTP) enter this command:

ProCurve(config)# ip ssh version 2

N o t e

As a matter of policy, administrators should not enable the SSHv1-only or the
SSHv1-or-v2 advertisement modes. SSHv1 is supported on only some legacy
switches (such as the ProCurve Series 2500 switches).

To confirm that SSH is enabled type in the command

ProCurve(config)# show ip ssh

Once you have confirmed that you have enabled an SSH session (with the

show

ip ssh command) you can then open your third-party software client applica­
tion to begin using the SCP or SFTP commands to safely transfer files or issue
commands to the switch.

If you need to disable secure file transfer:

ProCurve(config)# no ip ssh filetransfer
