Installing Application or ASDM Software to the Flash Memory
When you log into the security appliance during normal operation, you can copy the application software
or ASDM software to the flash file system from a TFTP, FTP, HTTP, or HTTPS server.
For multiple context mode, you must be in the system execution space.
Make sure you have network access to the server:
• For single context mode, configure any interface, its IP address, and any static routes required to
reach the server. See the “Configuring Interfaces” section on page 28-2 and then Chapter 8,
“Configuring IP Routing and DHCP Services.”
• For multiple context mode, you must first add the admin context and configure interfaces, IP
addresses, and routing to provide network access. See the “Configuring a Security Context” section
on page 5-1, and then the “Configuring Interfaces” section on page 28-2 and Chapter 8,
“Configuring IP Routing and DHCP Services.”
To copy the application or ASDM software, enter one of the following commands for the appropriate
download server:
• To copy from a TFTP server, enter the following command:
hostname# copy tftp://
server
[/
path
]/
filename
flash:/
filename
• To copy from an FTP server, enter the following command:
hostname# copy ftp://[
user
[:
password
]@]
server
[/
path
]/
filename
[;type=
xx
]
flash:/
filename
The type can be one of the following keywords:
–
ap—ASCII passive mode
–
an—ASCII normal mode
–
ip—(Default) Binary passive mode
–
in—Binary normal mode
Use binary for image files.
• To copy from an HTTP or HTTPS server, enter the following command:
hostname# copy http[s]://
[
user
[:
password
]@]
server
[:
port
][/
path
]/
filename
flash:/
filename
For example, to copy the application software from a TFTP server, enter:
hostname# copy tftp://209.165.200.226/cisco/xxxfile.bin flash:/xxxfile.bin
