copy
This command moves (upload/download) a code image or configuration file
between the switch’s flash memory and a TFTP server. When you save the
system code or configuration settings to a file on a TFTP server, that file can
later be downloaded to the switch to restore system operation. The success
of the file transfer depends on the accessibility of the TFTP server and the
quality of the network connection.
