System Management Commands

copy
This command moves (uploads/downloads) a code image or configuration file
between the switch’s flash memory and an FTP/TFTP server. It can also download a
diagnostics file or loader file from an FTP/TFTP server. When you save the system
code or configuration settings to a file on an FTP/TFTP server, that file can later be
downloaded to the switch to restore system operation. The success of the file
transfer depends on the accessibility of the FTP/TFTP server and the quality of the
network connection.

of the file name should not be a period (.), and the maximum length for file
names on the FTP/TFTP server is 127 characters or 31 characters for files on
the switch. (Valid characters: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, “.”, “-”, “_”)
• Due to the size limit of the flash memory, the switch supports only two
operation code files.
