Command Usage
• The system prompts for data required to complete the copy
command.
• The destination file name should not contain slashes (\ or /),
the leading letter of the file name should not be a period (.),
and the maximum length for file names on the TFTP server is
127 characters or 31 characters for files on the switch. (Valid
characters: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, “.”, “-”, “_”)
• Due to the size limit of the Flash memory, the switch supports
only one operation code file.
• The maximum number of user-defined configuration files
depends on available memory.
• You can use “Factory_Default_Config.cfg” as the source to
copy from the factory default configuration file, but you cannot
use it as the destination.
• To replace the startup configuration, you must use
startup-config as the destination.
• The Boot ROM image cannot be uploaded or downloaded from
the TFTP server. You must use a direct console connection and
access the download menu during a boot up to download the
Boot ROM (or diagnostic) image. See “Upgrading Firmware via
the Serial Port” on page B-1 for more details.
