Copy Files to and from the System

NOTE: For a detailed description of the copy command, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Reference.
• To copy a local file to a remote system, combine the file-origin syntax for a local file location with the file-destination
syntax for a remote file location.
• To copy a remote file to Dell Networking system, combine the file-origin syntax for a remote file location with the file-
destination syntax for a local file location.
