get CONFIG address-remote-server path/®lename

Initiates a request to a TFTP server to transfer a ®lefrom the server to the device. The server sends a data packet and the client node acknowledges

receipt of the data. This cycle continues until the transfer is complete and the following message appears on the console: TFTP transfer complete, Status: OK

If the TFTP transfer is unsuccessful, a detailed error message appear on

the screen. While transferring a ®le to CONFIG, the following message appears on the console: Updating Config: Do Not Interrupt

If you are attempting to transfer a ®le to IBD, and there is not enough memory in the IBD, the following message appears on the console:

No Free IBD BankAttention: Do not reset or power off the router while updating of the con®guration memory is in progress. This may corrupt the data in con®guration memory, forcing you to recon®gure the router.

Example:

tftp get

local filename [CONFIG]?

remote host [0.0.0.0]? 128.185.163.1

host filename [0A019947.cfg]? configs/vl-28.cfgTFTP transfer complete, status: OK

Local ®lename

Speci®es the name that you want the ®le to appear under after it has been transferred to the local device. When entering the ®lename, make sure that you specify thecomplete pathname if you are transferring the ®le to the IBD. The default is CONFIG.

Remote Host

Speci®es the address of the host containing the ®le you want to transfer. The Magic Number stored in the ®le is compared to the number in static RAM. This prevents cross loading nonvolatile memories between types of devices.

Host ®lename

Speci®es the name of the ®le on the host that you want to transfer. Make sure that you specify the complete pathname. The default is the ASCII representation of one of the host's IP addresses in hexadecimal. This ensures that the ®le has a unique name.

The hostname must match the hostname in the archive ®le. The hostname is case-sensitive.

put CONFIG address-remote-server path/®lename

Initiates a request to a TFTP server to transfer a ®leto the server from the router. The server acknowledges the request and the client transfers the ®le. This cycle continues until the transfer is complete and the console displays the following message:

TFTP transfer complete, Status: OK

Note: The TFTP put command does not allow you to place a ®le in another device's con®guration memory or IBD. You must be logged into that device and use the TFTP get command.
