Brocade Communications Systems 6650 manual Copying a file from an IPv6 Tftp server

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-configkeyword to copy the running configuration file to the specified IPv6 TFTP server.

Specify the startup-configkeyword 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.
