User Guidelines
When copying files from the switch, match a source URL with a destination
URL. URLs may not exceed 160 characters in length, including filename, file
path, hostname, ip address, user, and reserved keywords. When copying
firmware onto the switch in a stacked configuration, use the show sfs and
show version commands to check the status of stack firmware
synchronization prior to a reboot.
When copying scripts to the switch, use the script <filename> target syntax.
Internally, all scripts, including the startup-config and backup-config, are
stored with a header. The header is added when the script is downloaded to
the switch and removed when the script is uploaded from the switch. Using
the flash://<filename> syntax as the target or source bypasses adding of the
script header, ensuring that when a script is applied on the switch which was
previously copied to the switch using the flash://<filename> syntax, a syntax
error will result.
tftp: Source or destination URL for a TFTP network server. The syntax
for this alias is tftp:

band IP address can be specified as described in the User
Guidelines.
usb: Source or destination URL for a file on a mounted USB file
system.
flash: Source or destination URL for the switch flash-based file system.
