File copy from F5 LTM via TFTP or FTP?

I don't believe a tftp client is present on the LTM. FTP will work, unless you're looking to automate the transfer. You'd need something along the lines of an expect script for that.

 

 

You can certainly use scp to move files off the unit.

 

 

If you want to get crafty, you can use netcat to move files to and fro. On your receiving host, do:

 

 

nc -v -l -p 12345 | tar xf -

 

 

...then on the LTM do:

 

 

tar cf - (filename) | nc (IP of the receiving host) 12345

 

 

This will copy the file directly off via the netcat listening on port 12345. It's nice and quick, requires no password and copies without the overhead of scp.
