configupload via FTP

I'm trying to upload my switch configs to my workstation which has an FTP server running.

I've tested connecting to the FTP server from various hosts with success.

But the configupload fails because it can't connect.

Which port would the brocades be trying to use. I'm thinking I have to change the port on the FTP server.

The Brocade switches use the standard FTP ports 20/21.

Can you FTP out to your workstation from the same segment where the brocades are?

I just found out they also block FTP traffic internally.

Now I'm looking for an SSH server so I can scp from the switch.

Or is it possible to scp the config off the switch using an scp client on my workstation?

Got them to temporarily allow my FTP transfers.

Login to the switch and use the configUpload command. You have the scp options to scp out of the switch to an ssh server.
