Copying a Configuration File from RP DRAM to a Flash Memory Card
To copy the running configuration file from DRAM to a Flash memory card,
follow these steps:
Step 1
Enter the command for copying a running configuration file from DRAM to a
Flash memory card. The command takes the following form:
copy running-config
[
slot0:
|
slot1:
]
filename
where:
An example of the
copy
running-config
slot0:
filename
command follows:
Router#
copy running-config slot0:myfile2
20575008 bytes available on device slot0, proceed? [confirm]
Address or name of remote host [1.1.1.1]?
Loading new.image from 1.1.1.1 (via Ethernet0):

Router#
In this example, the exclamation points
(!)
appear as the source file is being
downloaded to the destination device. The
CCCCC
characters indicate that a cyclic
redundancy check (CRC) is being calculated during the downloading process. The
CRC verifies that the file has been correctly downloaded to the Flash memory card
inserted in PCMCIA slot 0 or the designated destination device.
Step 2
To further verify that the file was copied correctly, enter the
dir
command at the
privileged EXEC mode prompt:
Router#
dir slot0:
-#- -length- -----date/time------ name
1 5200084 May 10 2002 19:24:12 gsr-p-mz.112-8
3 1215 May 10 2002 20:30:52 myfile1
4 6176844 May 10 2002 23:04:10 gsr-p-mz.112-8.1
running-config
Specifies the DRAM source of the file to be copied.
[
slot0:
|
slot1:
]
filename
Specifies the destination of the configuration file to
be copied (the Flash memory card inserted in either
slot 0 or slot 1) and the name of the new file.
