TFTP: Copying a Configuration File to a Remote Host
For example, the following command copies a startup-config file named test-
01 from the switch to a (UNIX) TFTP server at IP address 10.10.28.14:
ProCurve(config)# copy config test-01 tftp 10.10.28.14
test-01.txt unix
copy config < src-file > xmodem < pc | unix > [oobm] 6-40
copy xmodem config < dest-file > < pc | unix > [oobm] 6-40
Syntax: copy config < src-file > tftp < ip-addr > < remote-file > < pc | unix > [oobm]
This is an addition to the copy tftp command options. Use
this command to upload a configuration file from the switch
to a TFTP server.
The oobm parameter specifies that the copy operation will go
out from the out-of-band management interface. If this
parameter is not specified, the copy operation goes out from
the data interface. Refer to Appendix G, “Network Out-of-
Band Management” in this guide for more information on
out-of-band management.
