Copy Character Descriptions:

Character

Description

!For network transfers, an exclamation point indicates that the copy process is taking place. Each exclamation point indicates the successful transfer of ten packets (512 bytes each).

.

For network transfers, a period indicates that the copy process timed out. Many periods

 

in a row typically mean that the copy process may fail.

Copying image file from a Server to Flash Memory

Use the copy source-url image command to copy an image file from a server to Flash memory. Copying 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

Use the copy source-urlrunning-configcommand to load a "configuration file" from a network server to the device "running configuration". The configuration is added to the "running configuration" 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 file", with the loaded "configuration file" having precedence.

Copying a Configuration File from a Server to the Startup Configuration

Use the copy source-urlstartup-configcommand to copy a "configuration file" from a network server to the device "startup configuration". These commands replace the startup configuration file with the copied configuration file.

Storing the Running or Startup Configuration on a Server

Use the copy running-configdestination-urlcommand to copy the current configuration file to a network server using TFTP. Use the copy startup-configdestination-urlcommand to copy the "startup configuration" file to a network server.

The configuration file copy can serve as a backup copy.

Saving the Running Configuration to the Startup Configuration

Use the copy running-configstartup-configcommand to copy the "running configuration" to the "startup configuration".

Backup the Running Configuration or Startup Configuration to the Backup Configuration

Use the copy running-config file command to backup the running configuration to a backup configuration file. Use the copy startup-config file command to backup the startup configuration a backup configuration file
