NOTE
If you disable SSH, SCP is also disabled.
The following are examples of using SCP to transfer files from and to a BigIron RX.
NOTE
When using SCP, you enter the scp commands on the SCP-enabled client, rather than the console
on the BigIron RX.
NOTE
Certain SCP client options, including -p and -r, are ignored by the SCP server on the BigIron RX. If an
option is ignored, the client is notified.
To copy a configuration file (c:\cfg\foundry.cfg) to the running configuration file on a BigIron RX at

before the file transfer takes place.
