Specifies the data transmission protocol as either File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
or Secure Copy Protocol (SCP). If no protocol is specified, the protocol
defaults to FTP.
Downloads the Virtual Fabric configuration (switch-conf_xx.txt) instead of the
regular system configuration. The switch-con_xx.txt file contains a listing of
logical switches configured on the platform specified by the platform ID (xx)
and other Virtual Fabric parameters. You cannot use the -vf option with any of
the system configuration upload options (-fid, -chassis, -all).
Downloads all configuration data, including chassis and switch configuration
data.
Downloads the switch configuration to a logical switch specified by its fabric
ID. This operand is valid only in a Virtual Fabric environment and requires
chassis permissions. The following optional parameter is supported with the
-fid operand:
-sfid FID Specifies an alternate source switch configuration to be downloaded to the
target logical switch specified by -fid. When no source FID is specified, the
configuration file corresponding to the logical switch -fid FID is downloaded.
When a source FID is specified, the configuration corresponding to the logical
switch specified by the source FID is downloaded instead. This parameter
allows you to effectively swap logical switch configurations. Note that all ports
in the FID are reset to the default state when downloading data from the
source FID.
Downloads the chassis configuration only.
Specifies the name or the IP address of the external host, from which to
download the configuration. IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are supported. To be
able to mention the FTP server by name, you need to set up two DNS servers
with dnsConfig. Quotation marks are optional.
Specifies the login name for the external host. Quotation marks are optional.
Specifies the file name and path of the configuration file. Absolute path
names may be specified using a forward slash (/). Relative path names
search for the file in the login account's home directory on UNIX hosts and in
the directory on which the FTP server is running on Windows hosts. This
operand is valid only when the file is downloaded from an external host.
Quotation marks are optional.
Specifies the login password when you use the FTP protocol. Quotation marks
are optional.
Downloads a specified configuration file from a predetermined directory on
the local chassis.
Downloads a specified configuration file from a predetermined directory on
an attached USB device.
