When I was trying to figure out how to upgrade the Cisco Nexus switch for a customer, I ran into the problem that I also had to upload the firmware to the relevant switch(es). The firmware to be uploaded was too large for tftp. At the time I thought of WinSCP, but that doesn't work out-of-the-box. So below is an explanation of how I got it to work.
- First of all you want to make a backup of the current firmware and configuration and for that you have to enable the two features below on the Cisco Nexus switch. First command is to check which features are already enabled:
show feature | sec enabledfeature bash-shellfeature scp-server
2. Als deze features ingeschakeld zijn, kun je met WinSCP inloggen op de Nexus switch. Let wel op dat je bij protocol SCP selecteert. Daarna de rest invullen en bewaren of meteen inloggen.
