Using SFTP from an External SSH2 Client
The SFTP protocol is supported for transferring configuration, and policy files to the switch
from the SFTP client. You must have administrator-level access to the switch. The switch can
be specified by its switch name or IP address.
XCM8800 requires that SFTP transfer to the switch files named as follows:
• *.cfg—XCM8800 configuration files
• *.pol—XCM8800 policy files
• *.xos—XCM8800 core image file
• *.xmod—XCM8800 modular package file
• *.ssh—Public key files
In the following examples, you are using a Linux system to move files to and from the switch
at 192.168.0.120, using the switch administrator account admin. You are logged into your
Linux system as account user.
To transfer the primary configuration file from the switch to your current Linux directory using
SCP2, use the following command:
[user@linux-server]# sftp admin@192.168.0.120
password: <Enter password>
sftp> put primary.cfg
To copy the policy filename test.pol from your Linux system to the switch, use the following
command:
[user@linux-server]# sftp admin@192.168.0.120
password: <Enter password>
sftp> put test.pol
To copy the image file test.xos from your Linux system to the switch, use the following
command:
[user@linux-server]# sftp admin@192.168.0.120
password: <Enter password>
sftp> put test.xos
To copy the SSH image file test-ssh.xmod from your Linux system to the switch, use the
following command:
[user@linux-server]# sftp admin@192.168.0.120
password: <Enter password>
sftp> put test-ssh.xmod
To load the public keyed_rsa.pub from your Linux system to the switch, use the following
