nodeFileTransferRequest

Module: CASCADE-MIB

OID (symbolic): CASCADE-MIB::nodeFileTransferRequest

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.277.1.3.66

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: DisplayString

Access: read-write

Description: This object is used to initiate file transfers to and from the switch. A management station can initiate a file transfer by settting this object of text string in the following format:

operation filename time-to-wait target-host protocol

where operation - [get | put], filename - configuration.[card] time-to-wait - a number in seconds target-host - the IP address of target host protocol - [tftp | ftp]

Multiple transfers can be specified by repeating above with ';' between each transfer specifier.

Examples:

o get configuration.10 5 152.148.10.100 tftp

will start a transfer of configuration information on card 10 to host 152.148.10.100 in 5 seconds.

o put configuration.1 2 152.148.1.1 tftp ; get configuration.1 15 152.148.1.1 tftp

will (1) transfer configuration.1 from 152.148.1.1 (2) transfer configuration.2 to 152.148.1.1

To cancel the transfer request, set this object to empty.

What is nodeFileTransferRequest?

Writing a specially formatted text string, giving operation, filename, time-to-wait, target-host, and protocol, to this object initiates a get or put file transfer to or from the switch, functioning as a command-line-style control interface embedded in an SNMP object. For example, writing a put command with a card's configuration filename, a wait time, and a TFTP server address pushes that card's configuration file to the specified server after the wait elapses.
