The TransferMgr Utility
The Transfer Manager utility (TransferMgr) allows you to upload configuration information from a
device to a file, and to download configuration information and ExtremeWare software images to
Extreme devices.
This command provides a command-line version of some of the functionality available in the EPICenter
Configuration Manager applet.
Using the TransferMgr Command
The TransferMgr utility is located in the EPICenter bin directory, <EPICenter_install_dir>/client/
bin
. By default this is \Program Files\Extreme Networks\EPICenter 6.0\client\bin in Windows, or
/opt/ExtremeNetworks/EPICenter6.0/client/bin in a UNIX environment.
This command includes options for specifying EPICenter server access information, the transfer
function to be performed (upload, download, incremental download, or ExtremeWare image
download), the device on which to perform the operation on, and the file location on the server.
The syntax of the command is as follows:
TransferMgr -user <EPICenter username> -upload -dip <device address> <upload
location options>
TransferMgr -user <EPICenter username> -download <filename>
-dip <device address>
TransferMgr -user <EPICenter username> -incremental <filename>
-dip <device address>
TransferMgr -user <EPICenter username> -software <filename>
-dip <device address> {primary | secondary}
The EPICenter user name, one of the four transfer options, and a device IP address are required. Other
options are optional.
