Using TFTP to Upload the
Configuration
You can upload the current configuration to a TFTP server on your
network. The uploaded ASCII file retains the command-line
interface (CLI) format. This allows you to do the following:
• Modify the configuration using a text editor, and later download a
copy of the file to the same switch, or to one or more different
switches.
• Send a copy of the configuration file to the Intel Customer
Support department for problem-solving purposes.
• Automatically upload the configuration file every day, so that the
TFTP server can archive the configuration on a daily basis.
Because the filename is not changed, the configured file stored in
the TFTP server is overwritten every day.
To upload the configuration, use the command
upload configuration [<ipaddress> | <hostname>]
<filename> {every <time>}
where the following is true:
•
ipaddress
— Is the IP address of the TFTP server.
•
hostname
— Is the hostname of the TFTP server. (You must
enable DNS to use this option.)
•
filename
— Is the name of the ASCII file. The filename can be
up to 255 characters long, and can not include any spaces,
commas, quotation marks, or special characters.
•
every <time>
— Specifies the time of day you want the
configuration automatically uploaded on a daily basis. If not
specified, the current configuration is immediately uploaded to
the TFTP server.
To cancel a previously scheduled configuration upload, use the
command
upload configuration cancel
