Chapter 5 Managing the ACE Software
Using the File System on the ACE
Copying Files from a Remote Server
To copy a file from a remote server to a location on the ACE using FTP, SFTP, or
TFTP, use the copy command in Exec mode.
The syntax for the command is:
copy {ft
p://server/path[/filename] |
sftp://[username@]server/path[/filename] |
tftp://server[:port]/path[/filename]} {disk0:[path/]filename |
image:image_name | running-config | startup-config}
The keywords, arguments, and options are:
• ftp://server/path[/filename]—Specifies the FTP network server and,
optionally, the filename.
• sftp://[username@]server/path[/filename]—Specifies the SFTP network
server and, optionally, the filename.
• tftp://server[:port]/path[/filename]—Specifies the TFTP network server and,
optionally, the filename.
• disk0:[path/]filename—Specifies a file destination in the disk0: file system
of Flash memory. If you do not provide the optional path, the ACE copies the
file to the root directory on the disk0: file system.
• image:image_name—Specifies to copy a system software image to Flash
memory. Use the boot system command as described in Chapter 1, Setting
Up the ACE to specify the BOOT environment v
ariable. The BOOT
environment variable specifies a list of image f
iles on various devices from
which the ACE can boot at startup.
• running-config—Specifies to replace the running-configuration file
currently residing on the ACE in RAM (volatile memory).
• startup-config—Specifies to replace the startup-configuration file currently
residing on the ACE in Flash memory (nonvolatile memory).
For example, to copy a startup-configuration file from a remote FTP server to the
di
sk0: file system, enter:
host1/Admin# copy ftp://192.168.1.2/ startup-config
Enter source filename[]? startup_
config_Adminctx
File already exists, do you want to overwrite?[y/n]: [y] y
Enter username[]? user1
