The copy command can also be used to download the following files:
• CLI banner: See copy (clibanner).
• SFTOS software (often called the “software image”):
before SFTOS 2.5: filename system:image
SFTOS 2.5.1: filename {image1 | image2}
For example, to download the software to the location where the current backup image is
stored, assuming the backup image is stored in the “image 2” location, enter:
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filenamerimage2
• SSH key files (sshkey-rsa, sshkey-rsa2, or sshkey-dsa)
• SSL certificates (HTTP secure-server certificates — sslpem-dhstrong, sslpem-dhweak,
sslpem-root, sslpem-server) (For more on SSH and SSL, see the chapter “Providing User
Access Security” in the SFTOS Configuration Guide.)
• startup configuration (startup-config)
Except for the SFTOS software, download files from a TFTP server with copy tftp://, followed by the
source URL and filename, and then specify the destination as nvram:name, where name is one of the
keywords listed above. For example:
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:clibanner
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:script
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:sslpem-root
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:sslpem-server
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:sslpem-dhweak
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:sslpem-dhstrong
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:sshkey-rsa1
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:sshkey-rsa2
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:sshkey-dsa
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:startup-config
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename {image1 | image2}
For example, to download the software to the location where the current backup image is stored,
assuming the backup image is stored in the “image 2” location, enter:
copy tftp://tftp_server_ip_address/path/filename image2
You can also copy the SFTOS software image in a stack from the management unit to a specific
member unit or all member units:
copy {image1 | image2} unit://unit/{image1 | image2}
For
unit, enter a specific member number as an integer from 1 to 6.
An asterisk (* ) indicates that the image should be copied to all members:
unit://*/{image1 | image2}
Note: Starting with SFTOS version 2.3, you can use the command
OedIuCtCd QQtftp_server_ip_address/path/filename nvram:startup-config
to copy either a binary file or a text file to the startup-config file. The result is a text file.
