CCNA LAB Practice - TFTP Server

TFTP Server

 Objective

This lab demonstrates how you can backup your configuration as well as upload your configuration.

The demonstrations include:

1. Uploading Configuration to the TFTP Server.
2. Downloading Configuration from the TFTP Server.

i. Uploading Configuration to the TFTP Server

Diagram

Procedure

1. Make a TFTP Server to Host ‘A’.
2. Verification of connectivity of PC & Router by ping command.
3. Upload the NVRAM Configuration into TFTP Server.
4. Verifying the uploaded configuration from the TFTP Server.

Configuration         

Step 1: Make a TFTP Server to Host ‘A’.

Step 2: Verification of connectivity of PC & Switch by ping command.

R1#ping 10.0.0.1

Type escape sequence to abort.

Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.0.0.1, timeout is 2 seconds:

!!!!!

Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/4 ms

Step 3: Upload the NVRAM Configuration into TFTP Server.

                  

R1#copy startup-config tftp

Remote host []? 10.0.0.1

Name of configuration file to write [r1-confg]? R1-configuration

Write file R1-configuration on host 10.0.0.1? [confirm]

Writing R1-configuration !! [OK]

Step 4: Verifying the uploaded configuration from the TFTP Server.

ii. Downloading Configuration from the TFTP Server

Diagram

Procedure

1. Make a TFTP Server to Host ‘A’.
2. Remove the Configuration from the NVRAM and reload the Router.
3. Give the IP Address to the Router.
4. Verification of connectivity of PC & Router by ping command.
5. Download the NVRAM Configuration from the TFTP Server.
6. Verifying the uploaded configuration from the TFTP Server.

Configuration         

Step 1: Make a TFTP Server to Host ‘A’.

Step 2: Remove the Configuration from the NVRAM & reload the Router.

R1#write erase

 [OK]

R1#reload

Proceed with reload? [confirm]

%SYS-5-RELOAD: Reload requested

System Bootstrap, Version 11.0(10c), SOFTWARE

<Output Omitted>

 Step 3: Give the IP Address to the Router.

Router(config)#int ethernet 0

Router(config-if)#ip address 10.0.0.20 255.0.0.0

Step 4: Verification of connectivity of PC & Switch by ping command.

Router#ping 10.0.0.1

Type escape sequence to abort.

Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.0.0.1, timeout is 2 seconds:

.!!!!

Success rate is 80 percent (4/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/3/4 ms

Step 5: Download the NVRAM Configuration from TFTP Server.

                  

Router#copy tftp running-config

Host or network configuration file [host]?

Address of remote host [255.255.255.255]? 10.0.0.1

Name of configuration file [router-confg]? R1-configuration

Configure using R1-configuration from 10.0.0.1? [confirm]

Loading R1-configuration from 10.0.0.1 (via Ethernet0): !

[OK - 1076/32723 bytes]

R1#

%SYS-5-CONFIG: Configured from R1-configuration by console tftp from 10.0.0.1

Step 6(A): Verifying the uploaded configuration by the command.

R1#show running-config

Step 6(B): Verifying the uploaded configuration from the TFTP Server.
