I don't have that model Enterasys so I don't know the commands off the top of my head but a couple of things come to mind. <br />
<br />
That invalid image error is what I see on other Enterasys switches when trying to copy a config file to the root and not the configs directory.<br />
<br />
Another thing is maybe it won't let you overwrite the startup.cfg. Can you try to tftp copy it as a new name coming back?<br />
<br />
Is there enough space on the file system to copy to it?<br />
<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I need to send a config file to my enterasys so I can apply it. I have no problem with first creating one using:<br />
show config outfile slot1/startup.cfg<br />
then<br />
copy file://x.x.x.x/slot1/start<wbr />up.cfg t<a href="ftp://x.x.x.x/startup.cfg" rel="ugc">ftp://x.x.x.x/startup.cfg</a><br />
<br />
When I try to copy from tftp to local slot1 I get an error saying invalid image file!<br />
I just want to copy back the backup settings startup.cfg file:<br />
copy t<a href="ftp://x.x.x.x/startup.cfg" rel="ugc">ftp://x.x.x.x/startup.cfg</a> file://x.x.x.x/slot1/start<wbr />up.cfg<br />
&nbsp;so I can run:<br />
configure slot1/startup.cfg.<br />
<br />
I've tried this over with many switches I have of the same model, and I don't think it's file corruption. The file looks fine when you open it. What am I doing wrong?<br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
