HP-IB> enable
HP-IB# copy ftp://user-name:password@source-IP-address/source-image-file-path-name
image:destination-file-name
Enter path, user-name and password information.
This information authenticates you to the server, which is specified in source-IP-address.
• Include the full path to the file.
• Set the file-system to image when copying image files.
HP-IB# copy
ftp://root:infini@15.13.113.96/tmp/HP-AB291A-Release-1.1.3hp-build020.img
image:HP-AB291A-Release-1.1.3hp-build020.img

Step 4. Continue on to “4. Install a New Image” on page 77 to make the image active.
Download From a TFTP Server
Use TFTP to download new image files to the system. Uninstalled system-image files always end with a .img extension.
Directory management is automatically performed on the system, so do not include path information for files on the
chassis.
Step 1. (optional) If you are using In-Band Management, configure the IP management interface (if you have not
already done so).
HP-IB> enable
HP-IB# config
HP-IB(config)# interface mgmt-ether
HP-IB(config-if-mgmt-ethernet)#ip address 10.3.102.8. 255.255.0.0
HP-IB(config-if-mgmt-ethernet)#gateway 10.3.0.1
HP-IB(config-if-mgmt-ethernet)#no shutdown
HP-IB(config-if-mgmt-ethernet)# exit
HP-IB (config) # exit
Step 2. In the privileged-execute mode, enter the copy command with the remote system and path information.
The “remote system” must be the IP address of the TFTP server.
Syntax:
HP-IB> enable
HP-IB# copy tftp://<remote-system>/<filepath> <filesystem>:<filename>
HP-IB# copy tftp://@10.10.20.78/tftp dir/HP-AB291A-Release-1.1.3hp-build020.img
image:HP-AB291A-Release-1.1.3hp-build020.img

Step 3. (Optional) View the images by using the dir image command.
HP-IB# dir image
