Downloading a File from an FTP, TFTP, or SCP Server

You can download an image file, a configuration file, or a script file from an FTP, TFTP, or SCP server to the S- K- or 7100-Series device.

To download an image file, configuration file, or script file from an FTP, TFTP, or SCP server, use the copy command.

copy source destination

• source is the URL of an FTP, TFTP, or SCP server.
• destination is the local file path. For a configuration or script file, destination must include slotN/.

The S- K- or 7100-Series module to which a configuration file is downloaded must have the same hardware configuration as the S- K- or 7100-Series module from which it was uploaded.

For reasons of security, passwords are not allowed in copy command URLs. A password prompt displays upon entering a copy command. For example:

System(rw)->copy scp://doc@banshee.extremenetworks.com:22/myconfig slot3/myconfig
Password:
###########
System(rw)->

Once you have downloaded an image file, set the device to load the new image file at startup using the set boot system command. See Setting the Boot Firmware Image.
