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.
