Working with Files 605
The tftp://ip-addr/filename URL refers to a file on a TFTP server. If DNS is
configured on the WX switch, you can specify a TFTP server’s hostname as
an alternative to specifying the IP address.
The tmp:filename URL refers to a file in temporary storage. You can copy
a file out of temporary storage but you cannot copy a file into temporary
storage.
The subdirname/ option specifies a subdirectory.
If you are copying a system image file into nonvolatile storage, the
destination-url must include the boot partition name. You can specify one
of the following:
boot0:/filename
boot1:/filename
You must specify the boot partition that was not used to load the
currently running image.
The maximum supported file size for TFTP is 32 MB.
You can copy a file from a WX switch to a TFTP server or from a TFTP
server to a WX switch, but you cannot use MSS to copy a file directly
from one TFTP server to another.

server. To rename the file when copying it, type the following command:
