I have to deploy one more Cisco Catalyst 2960 to our network... what
i wanted to do is just copy the config file of another 2960- which is already
on the network, and just change the ip address after that. My problem is I
forgot how to do it using ftp.. I have filezilla client and server, as well as
tera term. I had used filezilla once to download config from one of our switch,
but i forgot the steps. And I'm confuse which one I will use to download the
config, filezilla client or file zilla server?... Or can I just copy and paste
the output of the config from my teraterm?
The solution:
1 You can copy the config from the first switch to the FTP
server and then from the FTP server to the second switch. Be sure the second
switch isn't connected to the network, but instead with a direct connection to
the FTP server. Otherwise, you will have network problems with both switches
having the same IP address.
2 FTP / TFTP or copy / paste using Notepad and PuTTY / Tera
Term etc is the easiest way. Saving to a thumb drive just adds an extra two
steps that aren't required. And none of the 2900 series switches have USB ports
anyway... well not for that anyway. New 2960's such as WS-C2960S-24TS-L have mini-USB ports for the new
USB console cables.
3 I have a trick to offer that will help with editing your
file in the copy/paste route.
Once in global config mode, type:
term length 0
show run
What that does is prints the entire config from top to
bottom, without the "press enter to continue" messages in the middle.
Once it's done, you put it back with:
term length 24
If you don't put it back, scrolling is permanently off. Hope
that's useful.
