Managing a DOS File System

[ <filename> ] is the name to which you want to transfer the file. If you do not enter
a name, the system defaults to the
<filename> you specified for the source file.
The system executes one TFTP request at a time for the duration of the file
transfer. The destination system stores the file under the name you specify. If you
do not enter a destination file name, the system defaults to the
source file name.
Examples:
After transferring the file, you can rename or copy it at the source to its original
name. If the new file at the destination is a configuration file or an executable file,
verify its integrity by booting with it. If the system boots and loads the
configuration without problems, you can rename or copy the file name at the
destination to its original name.
You can also load a file onto the router by specifying the router host name and
volume, using the following command:
tftp put <remote_file> <host_name> : <local_vol> : <local_file>
This method is useful if the wfTftp.2.0 attribute for the default volume was not set
during the Quick-Start procedure.
Example:
Caution:
The local system erases the file if you enter its address in the
<remote_IP_address> field of the
tftp
command.
