You can transfer files to and from the G430/G450 Branch Gateways using Secure Copy (SCP). The primary purpose of SCP for these devices is to securely download Avaya software and firmware updates. Using the SCP alternative, a system administrator can disable File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) when they are not needed, making for a more secure system.

This feature is supported on the following devices:

• Duplicated Series Server
• G430 Branch Gateway
• G450 Branch Gateway
  Note:

  The target device for SCP data transfer must also be enabled for SCP. Refer to the documentation provided with your client personal computer documentation for instructions on the proper commands for SCP.

You can use SCP:

• To download firmware to the various media modules on the G430 and G450 Branch Gateways
• With FTP enabled or disabled
• With TFTP enabled or disabled
