2. Upload the file to the TFTP server.
Syntax: copy <source location> tftp
ProCurve# copy flash tftp
Address of remote host? 192.168.100.2
Source filename? routerB.txt
Destination filename? [routerB.txt]
After you enter copy <source location> tftp from the enable mode
context, the router will prompt you for the information it needs to suc-
cessfully complete the TFTP file transfer. When prompted, enter the IP
address of the TFTP server that is to receive the file. Then enter the
filename of the configuration file. When asked for the destination file-
name, you can either rename the file by entering the desired filename or
keep the same name by pressing
Filenames are case sensitive. When copying a file, be sure to enter the filename
exactly.
3. Open the file in a text editor.
Once the file has been successfully uploaded into a TFTP server, you can
open the file using a text editor such as Notepad.
4. Enter the changes.
Using the text editor, change the configurations that need to be custom-
ized. For example, you may need to change the IP addresses, hostname,
and other configurations to suit the destination router. Save the edited
configuration file back into the TFTP server.
5. Initiate a session with the router on which you want to install the custom-
ized configuration.
6. Erase files on the target router that may conflict with the new configura-
tion.
Make sure that the internal flash on the target router does not include a
backup startup-config.
ProCurve# show flash
ProCurve# show cflash
If there is a startup-config.bak, erase it.
