Setting TFTP parameters
Many processes in the switch can use a T
rivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server. The
following sections describe how to set a default TFTP server for the switch and how to clear
these defaults through ACLI:
•
Setting a default TFTP server on page 76
• Displaying the default TFTP server on page 76
• Clearing the default TFTP server on page 77
Important:
When you use the TFTP address parameter to perform copy or download commands, the
system overwrites the TFTP server address
Setting a default TFTP server
The
switch
processes that use a TFTP server often give the switch administrator the option to
specify the IP address of a TFTP server to use. Instead of entering this address every time,
the switch can store a default IP address.
Specify a default TFTP server for the switch with the tftp-server command. The syntax of
this command is
tftp-server [<ipv6_address> | <XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX>]
To complete the command, replace either ipv6_address with the IPv6 address or
<XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX> with the IPv6 or IP address of the default TFTP server. You must run
this command in Global Configuration command mode.
Displaying the default TFTP server
You
can display the default TFTP server configured for the switch in ACLI at any time by using
the show tftp-server command. This command has no parameters and you run it in
Privileged EXEC mode.
