Transferring Files to and from the Switch

TFTP allows you to transfer files between a TFTP server and the following switch storage areas: local file system, internal memory card, compact flash card, and USB 2.0 storage device.

Download a file from a TFTP server to the switch, using the tftp or tftp get commands.
tftp [ ip-address | host-name ] { -v vr_name } [ -g ] [ { -l local-file | } { -r remote-file } | { -r remote-file } { -l local-file } ]

tftp get [ ip-address | host-name] { vr vr_name } remote-file {local-file} {force-overwrite}
Note
By default, if you transfer a file with a name that already exists on the system, the switch prompts you to overwrite the existing file. For more information, see the tftp get command.
To upload a file from the switch to a TFTP server, use the tftp or tftp put commands:
tftp [ ip-address | host-name ] { -v vr_name } [ -p ] [ { -l local-file | } { -r remote-file } | { -r remote-file } { -l local-file } ]

tftp put [ ip-address | host-name] {vr vr_name} local-file { remote-file}
