NOTE
You cannot use the overwrite option from non-console sessions, because it will disconnect the
session.
Using the IPv6 ncopy command
The ncopy command for IPv6 allows you to do the following:
• Copy a primary or secondary boot image from flash memory to an IPv6 TFTP server.
• Copy the running configuration to an IPv6 TFTP server.
• Copy the startup configuration to an IPv6 TFTP server
• Upload various files from an IPv6 TFTP server.
Copying a primary or secondary boot image from flash memory to
an IPv6 TFTP server
For example, to copy the primary or secondary boot image from the device flash memory to an IPv6
TFTP server, enter a command such as the following.
PowerConnect# ncopy flash primary tftp 2001:7382:e0ff:7837::3 primary.img
This command copies the primary boot image named primary.img from flash memory to a TFTP
server with the IPv6 address of 2001:7382:e0ff:7837::3.
Syntax: ncopy flash primary | secondary tftp ipv6-address source-file-name
• The primary keyword specifies the primary boot image, while the secondary keyword specifies
the secondary boot image.
• The tftp ipv6-address parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify
this address in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
• The source-file-name parameter specifies the name of the file you want to copy from flash
memory.
Copying the running or startup configuration to an IPv6 TFTP server
For example, to copy a device running or startup configuration to an IPv6 TFTP server, enter a
command such as the following.
PowerConnect# ncopy running-config tftp 2001:7382:e0ff:7837::3 bakrun.cfg
This command copies a device running configuration to a TFTP server with the IPv6 address of
2001:7382:e0ff:7837::3 and names the destination file bakrun.cfg.
Syntax: ncopy running-config | startup-config tftp ipv6-address destination-file-name
• Specify the running-config keyword to copy the device running configuration or the
startup-config keyword to copy the device startup configuration.
• The tftp ipv6-address parameter specifies the address of the TFTP server. You must specify
this address in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
• The destination-file-name parameter specifies the name of the running configuration that is
copied to the IPv6 TFTP server.
