Transferring switch configurations
Using the CLI commands described in the section beginning with TFTP: Copying a configuration file to a
remote host (CLI) on page 276, you can copy switch configurations to and from a switch, or copy a software
image to configure or replace an ACL in the switch configuration.
NOTE:
For greater security, you can perform all TFTP operations using SFTP, as described in the section
Using SCP and SFTP on page 265.
You can also use the include-credentials command to save passwords, secret keys, and other
security credentials in the running config file. For more information, see the section on "Saving
Security Credentials in a Config File" in the access security guide for your switch.
TFTP: Copying a configuration file to a remote host (CLI)

"Multiple Configuration Files" in the basic operation guide for your switch.
