Downloading the OS from another switch (CLI)
Where two switches in your network belong to the same series, you can download a software image between
them by initiating a copy tftp command from the destination switch. The options for this CLI feature include:
• Copy from primary flash in the source to either primary or secondary in the destination.
• Copy from either primary or secondary flash in the source to either primary or secondary flash in the
destination.
Downloading from primary only (CLI)
Syntax:
copy tftp flash <ip-addr> flash [primary | secondary]

either the primary or secondary flash in the destination switch.
If you do not specify either a primary or secondary flash location for the destination, the download automatically
