Chapter 16: File Download and Upload Commands

The following command uploads the configuration file “sales_switches.cfg” from a master switch to switch 4:

upload method=remoteswitch srcfile=sales_switches.cfg switchlist=4

After the switch receives the file, it marks the file as its active boot configuration file and automatically resets itself so that it starts running with the new settings.

Since the configuration file was designated by its filename, the entire file without modifications is uploaded. This type of configuration file upload should be performed with care. If the master switch has a manually assigned IP address, the switch receiving the configuration file will end up with the same IP address as the master switch.
