* Production internetworks usually span wide areas and contain multiple routers. These geographically distributed routers need a source or backup location for software images. Using a TFTP server allows image and configuration uploads and downloads over the network. The TFTP server can be another router, or it can be a host system. In the graphic, the TFTP server is shown as a workstation running UNIX. The host could also be a laptop computer running DOS or Windows. The TFTP host can be any system with TFTP loaded and operating that is able to contain files on the TCP/IP network. You will be copying software between the TFPT host and Flash memory in the router. To prepare for using the TFPT server, you must check for preliminary conditions: Check on the router to make sure that you can see and write into Flash. Verify that the router has sufficient room in Flash to accommodate the Cisco IOS software image. Check on the TFTP server to make sure that you can access it over the TCP/IP network. Use the ping command as one method. Check on the TFTP server to make sure you know the file or file space for the Cisco IOS software image. For upload and download operations, you will need to specify a path or filename. It is more efficient to perform these preparation steps. These steps help ensure a successful file copy. If you rush into the file copy itself, chances are good that the copy will fail and you will need to begin troubleshooting the cause of the copy failure. * You can copy a system image back to a network server. This copy of the system image can serve as a backup copy and also can be used to verify that the copy in Flash is the same as the original disk file. The example uses the show flash command to learn the name of the system image file (xk09140z), and the copy flash tftp command to copy the system image to a TFTP server. The files can be renamed during transfer. In the example, an administrator is backing up the current image to the TFTP server. One scenar
