How to save to tftp server 1

[newbobbys9]

I have made changes to to my running-config. I copied it to my startup-config. I have been having trouble copying it to my tftp server.

I have the following entry in my sh run:

tftp-server disk0 99

There is also a PC card in the router, which I assume would be where the tftp might be stored. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

The PC card is most likely to bve flash memory and is used to store the IOS. Not sure what the entry in your running-conf is but to save to a tftp server I do the following:-

1. Connect a system running TFTP server service to the Local LAN that your router is connected to. Make a note of the TFTP server's IP as you will need it later. If you need the TFTP software try

http://www.solarwinds.net.

They have a freebie windows one!

2. From the Privileged mode issue the command copy run tftp
3. You will need to provide the TFTP Server's IP address and the name you want the file to be stored as.

4. TO RESTORE. Ensure your router can ping the tftp server then from Privileged mode issue copy tftp run

NB If you want to back up the IOS the same applies really except you will need to issue the command:- copy flash tftp. You will need to provide the IOS image name. This can be obtained via the show flash command prior to attempting the copy.


Hope this helps.
