Flash/File Commands 4

Enabling jumbo frames will limit the maximum threshold for broadcast storm control to 64 packets per second. (See the switchport broadcast command on page 4-114.)

The current setting for jumbo frames can be displayed with the show system command (page 4-62).

Example

Console(config)#jumbo frame

Console(config)#

copy

This command moves (upload/download) a code image or configuration file between the switch’s flash memory and a TFTP server. When you save the system code or configuration settings to a file on a TFTP server, that file can later be downloaded to the switch to restore system operation. The success of the file transfer depends on the accessibility of the TFTP server and the quality of the network connection.

Syntax

copy file {file running-config startup-config tftp unit} copy running-config {file startup-config tftp}

copy startup-config {file running-config tftp}

copy tftp {file running-config startup-config https-certificate public-key}

copy unit file

file - Keyword that allows you to copy to/from a file.

running-config- Keyword that allows you to copy to/from the current running configuration.

startup-config- The configuration used for system initialization.

tftp - Keyword that allows you to copy to/from a TFTP server.
