Yes I tried that. However the switch complains with an error about file
I got that figured out. My experience with tftp is a bit limited. I had to create the file first and then change permissions to 666. Then run this on the switch:
copy running-config tftp://x.x.x.x/name
I first thought I also had to add a path.
That, just to be clear, is not the TFTP device's fault, it's the TFTP server's fault. Not even really a fault, exactly, but a bit of security paranoia on the part of the typical tftpd implementation, plus a lack of a robust means of propagating the server administrator's configuration error back to the frustrated user who is just trying to do what ought to be a simple and sensible operation. So it's not really Dell's fault. ... JG -- Joe Greco - sol.net Network Services - Milwaukee, WI - http://www.sol.net "We call it the 'one bite at the apple' rule.
