TFTP File Transfers over IPv6
You can use TFTP copy commands over IPv6 to upload, or download files to
and from a physically connected device or a remote TFTP server, including:
■ Switch software
■ Software images
■ Switch configurations
■ ACL command files
■ Diagnostic data (crash data, crash log, and event log)
For complete information on how to configure TFTP file transfers between
the switch and a TFTP server or other host device on the network, refer to the
“File Transfers” appendix in the Management and Configuration Guide for
your switch.
To upload and/or download files to the switch using TFTP in an IPv6 network,
you must:
1. Enable TFTP for IPv6 on the switch (see “Enabling TFTP for IPv6” on
page 5-16).
2. Enter a TFTP copy command with the IPv6 address of a TFTP server in
the command syntax (see “Using TFTP to Copy Files over IPv6” on page 5-
17).
3. (Optional) To enable auto-TFTP operation, enter the auto-tftp command
(see “Using Auto-TFTP for IPv6” on page 5-19).
