When you use the copy running-config startup-config command to copy the running conguration
(the startup conguration le amended by any conguration changes made since the system was started) to the
startup conguration le, Dell Networking OS creates a backup le on the internal ash of the startup
conguration.
Dell Networking OS supports copying the running-conguration to a TFTP server, an FTP server, or a remote NFS
le system. For example:
• copy running-config tftp:
• copy running-config ftp:
• copy running-config nfsmount://<mount-point>/filepath
You can compress the running conguration by grouping all the VLANs and the physical interfaces with the same
property. You can store the operating conguration to the startup cong in Compressed mode and perform an
image downgrade without any conguration loss.
Example
Dell#copy running-config scp:
Address or name of remote host []: 192.168.1.1
Port number of the server [22]: 22
Destination file name [startup-config]:
User name to login remote host: username
Password to login remote host:

In this copy scp: flash: example, specifying SCP in the rst position indicates that you need to specify the
target in the ensuing prompts. Entering flash: in the second position indicates that the target is the internal
ash. The source is on a secure server running secure shell (SSH), so you are prompted for the user datagram
protocol (UDP) port of the SSH server on the remote host.
Example
Dell# copy running-config nfsmount://<mount-point>/filepath
Destination file name [test.txt]:
User name to login remote host: usrname
Password to login remote host:
