Working with Configuration Files
This example shows how to copy a configuration file named
host1-confg
from the
netadmin1
directory
on the remote server with an IP address of 172.16.101.101 and load and run those commands on the
bridge:
BR#
copy rcp://[email protected]/host1-confg system:running-config
Configure using host1-confg from 172.16.101.101? [confirm]
Connected to 172.16.101.101
Loading 1112 byte file host1-confg:![OK]
BR#
%SYS-5-CONFIG: Configured from host1-config by rcp from 172.16.101.101
This example shows how to specify a remote username of
netadmin1
. Then it copies the configuration
file
host2-confg
from the
netadmin1
directory on the remote server with an IP address of 172.16.101.101
to the startup configuration:
BR#
configure terminal
BR(config)#
ip rcmd remote-username netadmin1
BR(config)#
end
BR#
copy rcp: nvram:startup-config
Address of remote host [255.255.255.255]?
172.16.101.101
Name of configuration file[rtr2-confg]?
host2-confg
Configure using host2-confg from 172.16.101.101?[confirm]
Connected to 172.16.101.101
Loading 1112 byte file host2-confg:![OK]
[OK]
BR#
%SYS-5-CONFIG_NV:Non-volatile store configured from host2-config by rcp from
172.16.101.101
