Creating an FTP Record Chapter 1 Managing the CSS Software Copying Files from an FTP Server Use the copy ftp command to copy files from an FTP server to the CSS. This command is available in SuperUser mode. Before using this command, you must use the ftp-record global configuration mode command to create an FTP record file containing the FTP server IP address, username, and password. The syntax for this command is: copy ftp ftp_record filename [boot-image|scriptscript_filename| startup-config] The options and variables for this command are as follows: • ftp_record - Name of the FTP record file that contains the FTP server IP address, username, and password. Enter an unquoted text string with no spaces. To create an FTP record, use the ftp-record global configuration mode command. • filename - Name of the file on the FTP server that you want to copy to the CSS. Include the full path to the file. Enter an unquoted text string with no spaces and a maximum length of 32 characters. If you are using the boot-image keyword to copy an ADI file from an FTP server to the CSS, include the full path to the file including the file extension. Enter an unquoted text string with no spaces and a maximum length of 32 characters. You can also copy a GZIP-compressed version of the ADI file. The CSS uncompresses the file. If there is not enough disk space available, the CSS provides a message. • boot-image - Copies an ADI file from an FTP server. The ADI file contains the CSS software including boot files and logging and archiving directories. To unpack the CSS software in the ADI file, use the unpack boot mode command. When you use the boot-image keyword, the file you copy to the CSS must be an ADI file. Otherwise, the CSS rejects it. • script script_file - Copies an FTP file to the script directory. To assign a name to the script file on the CSS, enter an unquoted text string with no spaces and a maximum length of 32 characters. • startup-config - Copies the startup-config file and overwrites the existing configuration file.
