Save the r1 configuration to a tftp server

Unit 4 Graded Practice 2: Backup and Restore router programming

In this graded practice you will saving your router programming onto permanent storage on your router as well as backup copies into a TFTP and FTP server.

Create the following network in packet tracer.

Program your router as follows

R1# configure terminal

R1#hostname R1

R1(config)# interface G0/0

R1(config-if)# ip address 10.___.1.1 255.255.255.0

R1(config-if)# no shutdown

Program your server as

IP address: 10.___.1.10

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Gateway: 10.___.1.1

Now you are going to copy your router programming into permanent storage. Type the following into your router

R1# copy running-config startup-config

Destination filename [startup-config]?

Building configuration...

[OK]

You have now copied your router programming from RAM to flash storage. Turn your router off and back on again. This will clear the programming on your system and reload the operating system. Because you saved your program into flash storage it will also now be loaded.

You can also reverse the process by typing

R1# copy startup-config running-config

Destination filename [running-config]?

617 bytes copied in 0.416 secs (1483 bytes/sec)

Now you’re going to go in and save the file to a tftp server. Go to your server and click on the services tab. Find the tftp service and make sure the service is on. Type on your router

R1# copy running-config tftp (then hit enter)

Address or name of remote host []? 10.___.1.10

Destination filename [R1-confg]? R1-___-config

Writing running-config....!!

[OK - 617 bytes]

Go back to your tftp service on your server and find the file you just saved. Take a screenshot.

You can reverse the process by typing the following below. Take a screenshot of your successful restore from the tftp server.

R1# copy tftp running-config

Address or name of remote host []? 10.___.1.10

Source filename []? R1-___-config

Destination filename [running-config]?

Accessing tftp://10.10.1.10/R1-10-config...

Loading R1-10-config from 10.10.1.10: !

[OK - 617 bytes]

Now you are going to do the same process using the ftp service on your server. On your server go into the ftp service and make sure it is on. Add user1 with a password of password with Write, Read, Delete, Rename, and List permissions. Click the add button.

Program the router with the ftp username and password by typing

R1(config)# ip ftp username user1

R1(config)# ip ftp password password

Copy the configuration to the ftp server by typing

R1# copy running-config ftp

Address or name of remote host []? 10.___.1.10

Destination filename [R1-confg]? R1-___-config

Writing running-config...

[OK - 664 bytes]

Go back to your ftp service and verify that your configuration is saved to the server. Take a screenshot.

You can reverse the process by typing the following below. Take a screenshot.

R1# copy ftp running-config

Address or name of remote host []? 10.___.1.10

Source filename []? R1-___-config

Destination filename [running-config]?

Accessing ftp://10.10.1.10/R1-10-config...

[OK - 664 bytes]
