Configuring the TFTP server in the USB flash in IMG/IM4xxx gateways To set up the TFTP server if the USB drive has not been previously used (first time setup):
The IMG/IM4xxx is now set up to serve new firmware using the IMG/IM4xxx's address as the TFTP server (no username/password required). You can add new files to the TFTP server using WinSCP or OpenSSH scp. Using SSH Secure Copy, copy the new firmware from your PC to the IMG/IM4xxx's TFTP base directory /tmp/usbdisk/tftpboot/ e.g. # scp firmware.bin 192.168.0.1:/tmp/usbdisk/tftpboot Note: Only files under the tftpboot/ sub-directory will be used by the TFTP server. Using the tftp server to store Cisco configuration files So you can use the IMG/IM4xxx to store local copies of config files for network routers, or other devices on the USB flash e.g a network manager might want to locally back up a device's current configuration file to the IMG/IM4xxx tftp server before changing its contents (thereby allowing him/her to later restore the original configuration file from the server). By way of example you can simply copy Cisco configuration files from a router to a file server using TFTP. To store configuration information on a TFTP network server, you use the copy system:running-config tftp:[[[//location]/directory]/filename] command in the EXEC mode e.g. Tokyo# copy system:running-config tftp://172.16.2.155/tokyo-confg Write file tokyo-confg on host 172.16.2.155? [confirm] y # Writing tokyo-confg!!! [OK] For details refer Copying Configuration Files from the Router to a Network Server |
