Downloading a Text Configuration
You can download a text file from the following server types:
• TFTP
• FTP
• HTTP
• HTTPS
Make sure you have network access to the server:
• For single context mode, configure any interface, its IP address, and any static routes required to
reach the server. See the “Configuring Interfaces” section on page 6-6 and then Chapter 8,
“Configuring IP Addresses, Routing, and DHCP.”
• For multiple context mode, add the admin context and configure interfaces, IP addresses, and
routing to provide network access. See the “Configuring a Security Context” section on page 5-19,
and then the “Configuring Interfaces” section on page 6-6 and Chapter 8, “Configuring IP
Addresses, Routing, and DHCP.”
To download a text configuration from a server, follow these steps:
Step 1 To copy the single mode startup configuration or the multiple mode system startup configuration from
the server to Flash memory, enter one of the following commands for the appropriate download server:
• To copy from a TFTP server, enter the following command:
FWSM# copy tftp://
server
[/
path
]/
filename
startup-config
• To copy from an FTP server, enter the following command:
FWSM# copy ftp://[
user
[:
password
]@]
server
[/
path
]/
filename
[;type=
xx
] startup-config
The type can be one of the following keywords:
–
ap—ASCII passive mode
–
an—ASCII normal mode
–
ip—(Default) Binary passive mode
–
in—Binary normal mode
You can use ASCII or binary for configuration files.
• To copy from an HTTP or HTTPS server, enter the following command:
FWSM# copy http[s]://[
user
[:
password
]@]
server
[:
port
][/
path
]/
filename
startup-config
For example, to copy the configuration from a TFTP server, enter the following command:
FWSM# copy tftp://209.165.200.226/configs/startup.cfg startup-config
To copy the configuration from an FTP server, enter the following command:
FWSM# copy ftp://admin:letmein@209.165.200.227/configs/startup.cfg;type=an startup-config
To copy the configuration from an HTTP server, enter the following command:
FWSM# copy http://209.165.200.228/configs/startup.cfg startup-config
