# Upload/Download

Card>Configure>Upload/Download

Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is used to upload and download files to a switch or particular card. Catalyst 1200 and 1600 devices support downloading to the switch itself, while for a Catalyst 4000, 5000, 5500, 6000, 2900, or CPW 2200, you can download or upload files to any of the following:

Supervisor card

ATM card

FDDI card

Token Ring card

PCMCIA devices

Note: For the Token Ring card, you can download only the new software.

To display information regarding the card or module configuration file from the CiscoView Configure Card window, select Upload/Download from the CATEGORY popup menu.

The CiscoView Configure Card window displays the following information:

TFTP Server (tftpHost)

Whether the source host for the TFTP transfer is a local or remote server. If you specify remote, ensure that the default TFTP server displayed to the right of the Remote field is correct; if it is not, enter the IP address or host name of the TFTP server.

The Catalyst 6000 also accepts slot0: this allows the user to copy or save the configuration files (but not the software image) between the internal boot flash and the PCMCI card.

Filename (tftpFile)

Name of the file for the TFTP transfer.

Local/tftp boot (tftpResult)

Displays messages as the upload/download process is occurring.

Action (tftpAction)

TFTP action to take. Choices are as follows:

Download Config Receive a configuration file from the host or file.

Upload Config Send a configuration file to the host or file.

Download Sw Receive a software image from the host or file.

Upload Sw Send a software image to the host or file.

Download Fw Receive a firmware image from the host or file.

Upload Fw Send its firmware image to the host or file.

Tftp Result Result of the last TFTP operation.

Note that the Token Ring card can execute only the Download Software option.

Click Transfer to begin the upload or download process, or click Cancel to close the dialog box without performing any action.

# Save Configuration

Card>Configure>Save Configuration

The Save Configuration dialog box lets you save a copy of the module configuration file to a file or NVRAM. To upload a file, this filename must already exist on the server, and it must have Read/Write permission enabled.
