Syntax:
copy running slot1 | slot2 [\<to-dir-path>\]<to-name>
Syntax:
ncopy running slot1 | slot2 [\<to-dir-path>\]<to-name>
Loading a Running-Config File from a Flash Card
Use the following method to load ACLs from a running-config file into the device’s active configuration.
For example, if the device’s configuration includes a large set of Access Control Lists (ACLs), you can configure
the ACLs offline in a text file on a PC, then save the file to the flash card. To load the ACLs, you can insert the
flash card in the Foundry device, then copy the file to the device’s running configuration.
NOTE:
This feature allows you to preconfigure and load large sets of ACLs. If you accidentally try to load a
running-config file that contains other types of configuration information using this method, the software might
display error messages. This occurs when the device’s parser encounters lines in the file that do not correspond
to valid configuration commands.
USING THE CLI
To copy a running-config file from a flash card, enter a command such as the following:
BigIron# copy slot2 running runip.2
Syntax:
copy slot1 | slot2 running [\<from-dir-path>\]<from-name>
Syntax:
ncopy slot1 | slot2 [\<from-dir-path>\]<from-name> running
The command in this example changes the device’s active configuration based on the information in the file.
Copying a POS Image File from a Flash Card to a POS Module’s Flash Memory
To copy a POS image file from a flash card to a POS module’s flash memory, use the following method.
USING THE CLI
To copy a POS image file from a flash card onto all the POS modules in the chassis, enter a command such as the
following:
BigIron# pos copy slot1 flash P2R07000.bin primary
Syntax:
pos copy slot1 | slot2 flash <pos-image-file-name> primary | secondary [slot]
The command in this example copies a POS image file named P2R07000.bin from the flash card in slot 1 to all the
POS modules in the chassis.
To copy a POS image file from a flash card onto a specific POS module, enter a command such as the following:
BigIron# pos copy slot1 P2R07000.bin flash primary 4
The command in this example copies the specified image file onto the POS module in chassis slot 4 only, but does
not copy the file to other POS modules in the chassis.
The following command copies a POS image file from a TFTP server to flash memory. This command also is
present in earlier software releases.
Syntax:
pos copy tftp flash <ip-addr> <pos-image-file-name> primary | secondary [slot]
Loading the Startup-Config File from a PCMCIA Flash Card During System
Load
You can boot the flash software (system software) from a PCMCIA flash card and save configuration changes to a
startup-config file on the flash card.
Rebooting from the Flash Card
To reboot the device using a software image file on the flash card, enter a command such as the following at the
Privileged Exec level of the CLI:
BigIron# boot system slot1 B2R07100.bin
