Loading and saving configuration files with IPv6 3
Brocade#copy running-config tftp 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 newrun.cfg
This command copies the running configuration to a TFTP server with the IPv6 address of
2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 and names the file on the TFTP server newrun.cfg.
Syntax: copy running-config | startup-config tftp <ipv6-address> <destination-file-name>
Specify the running-config keyword to copy the running configuration file to the specified IPv6 TFTP
server.
Specify the startup-config keyword to copy the startup configuration file to the specified IPv6 TFTP
server.
The tftp <ipv6-address> parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify this
address in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
The <destination-file-name> parameter specifies the name of the file that is copied to the IPv6
TFTP server.
Copying a file from an IPv6 TFTP server
You can copy a file from an IPv6 TFTP server to the following destinations:
•Flash memory
•Running configuration
•Startup configuration

Copying a file to flash memory

For example, to copy a boot image from an IPv6 TFTP server to the primary or secondary storage
location in the device flash memory, enter a command such as the following.
Brocade#copy tftp flash 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 test.img secondary
This command copies a boot image named test.img from an IPv6 TFTP server with the IPv6
address of 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 to the secondary storage location in the device flash memory.
Syntax: copy tftp flash <ipv6-address> <source-file-name> primary | secondary
The <ipv6-address> parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify this
address in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
The <source-file-name> parameter specifies the name of the file you want to copy from the IPv6
TFTP server.
The primary keyword specifies the primary storage location in the device flash memory, while the
secondary keyword specifies the secondary storage location in the device flash memory.

Copying a file to the running or startup configuration

For example, to copy a configuration file from an IPv6 TFTP server to the running or startup
configuration, enter a command such as the following.
Brocade#copy tftp running-config 2001:DB8:e0ff:7837::3 newrun.cfg overwrite
This command copies the newrun.cfg file from the IPv6 TFTP server and overwrites the running
configuration file with the contents of newrun.cfg.
