Using TFTP to Upload the Configuration
ExtremeWare XOS 11.3 Concepts Guide
603
Using TFTP to Upload the Configuration
You can upload the current configuration to a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server on your
network. The uploaded configuration file retains your system configuration and is saved in Extensible
Markup Language (XML) format. This allows you to send a copy of the configuration file to the
Extreme Networks Technical Support department for problem-solving purposes.
To view your current switch configuration, use the
show configuration {<module-name>}
command
available on your switch. Do not use a text editor to view or modify your switch configuration files. For
more information about the
show configuration {<module-name>}
command, see the ExtremeWare
XOS Command Reference Guide .
For more information about TFTP, see “Using the Trivial File Transfer Protocol” on page 69 .
To upload the configuration to a TFTP server, use the following command:
tftp [<host-name> | <ip_address>] -p -l <local_file> {-r <remote_file>}
Where the following is true:
●
host-name
—Is the host name of the TFTP server
●
ip_address
—Is the IP address of the TFTP server
●
-p
—Puts the specified file from the local host and copies it to the TFTP server
●
-l <local_file>
—Specifies the name of the configuration file that you want to save to the TFTP
server
●
-r <remote_file>
—Specifies the name of the configuration file on the TFTP server
If you upload a configuration file and see the following message:
Error: No such file or directory
Check to make sure that you entered the filename correctly, including the .cfg extension, and that you
entered the correct host name or IP address for the TFTP server.
If your upload is successful, the switch displays a message similar to the following:
Uploading megtest1.cfg to TFTPhost ... done!
Using TFTP to Download the Configuration
You can download previously saved XML formatted XOS configuration files from a TFTP host to the
switch to modify the switch configuration. Do not use a text editor to view or modify your switch
configuration files; modify your switch configurations directly in the CLI.
To download the configuration, use the following command:
tftp [<host-name> | <ip_address>] -g -r <remote_file> {-l <local_file>}
Where the following is true:
●
host-name
—Is the host name of the TFTP server
●
ip_address
—Is the IP address of the TFTP server
