Working with Configuration Files Chapter 17 Managing Firmware and Configurations The file is uploaded to the TFTP server. This example shows how to upload a configuration file from an bridge to a TFTP server: BR# copy system:running-config tftp://172.16.2.155/tokyo-confg Write file tokyo-confg on host 172.16.2.155? [confirm] y # Writing tokyo-confg!!! [OK] Copying Configuration Files by Using FTP You can copy configuration files to or from an FTP server. The FTP protocol requires a client to send a remote username and password on each FTP request to a server. When you copy a configuration file from the bridge to a server by using FTP, the Cisco IOS software sends the first valid username in this list: • The username specified in the copy command if a username is specified. • The username set by the ip ftp username username global configuration command if the command is configured. • Anonymous. The bridge sends the first valid password in this list: • The password specified in the copy command if a password is specified. • The password set by the ip ftp password password global configuration command if the command is configured. • The bridge forms a password named [email protected]. The variable username is the username associated with the current session, apname is the configured host name, and domain is the domain of the bridge. The username and password must be associated with an account on the FTP server. If you are writing to the server, the FTP server must be properly configured to accept your FTP write request. Use the ip ftp username and ip ftp password commands to specify a username and password for all copies. Include the username in the copy command if you want to specify only a username for that copy operation. If the server has a directory structure, the configuration file is written to or copied from the directory associated with the username on the server. For example, if the configuration file resides in the home directory of a user on the server, specify that user's name as the remote username. For more information, refer to the documentation for your FTP server.
