Usage Guidelines Use the copy http install EXEC command to install an image file from an HTTP server and install it on
a WAAS device. It transfers the image from an HTTP server to the WAAS device using HTTP as the
transport protocol and installs the software on the device. Part of the image goes to a disk and part goes
to flash memory. Use the copy http central EXEC command to download a software image into the
repository from an HTTP server.
You can also use the copy http install EXEC commands to redirect your transfer to a different location
or HTTP proxy server by specifying the proxy hostname | ip-address option. A username and a password
have to be authenticated with a primary domain controller (PDC) before the transfer of the software
release file to the WAAS device is allowed.
