1) configure an IP address on the management port

Switch>en
Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config-if)#interface FastEthernet1
Switch(config-if)#ip vrf forwarding mgmtVrf
Switch(config-if)#ip address 192.168.0.240 255.255.255.0
Switch(config-if)#speed auto
Switch(config-if)#duplex auto
Switch(config-if)#exit
Switch(config)#exit
Switch#

2) ping to check if it works

Switch#ping vrf mgmtVrf 192.168.0.127

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 192.168.0.127, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/1 ms
Switch#


3) configure the management port as source for the TFTP

Switch#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Switch(config)#ip tftp source-interface FastEthernet1 Switch#exit Switch#

4) copy the IOS

Switch#copy tftp: slot0: Address or name of remote host [192.168.0.127]? Source filename [XYZ]? Destination filename [XYZ]? Accessing tftp://192.168.0.127/XYZ
