File Transfers
Copying Diagnostic Data to a Remote Host, USB Device, PC or UNIX Workstation
Copying Command Output to a Destination Device
Syntax:
copy command-output < “cli-command” > tftp < ip-address > < filepath-
filename > [oobm]
copy command-output < “cli-command” > usb < filename >
copy command-output <“cli-command”> xmodem
These commands direct the displayed output of a CLI
command to a remote host, attached USB device, or to a serially
connected PC or UNIX workstation.
For switches that have a separate out-of-band management
port, the oobm parameter specifies that the transfer will be
through the out-of-band management interface. If this
parameter is not specified, the transfer will be through the data
interface. The oobm parameter is not available on switches that
do not have a separate out-of-band management port. Refer to
Appendix I, “Network Out-of-Band Management” in this guide
for more information on out-of-band management.
For example, to use Xmodem to copy the output of show config to a serially
connected PC:
At this point, press
[Enter] and start the
Xmodem command
sequence in your
terminal emulator.
Indicates the operation is finished.
