Connecting from my (Windows) workstation to the switch using SFTP gives "FXP_READ" errors when trying to download files larger than 30kB or so.
Using SCP just disconnects me when I try to download.
The other way round, copy command to push them off the switch to somewhere else doesn't have a vrf option, so I can't use that either.
Linux sftp seems to work fine (or at least not complain and the files seem to be intact)

SFTP seems to be the go to for this. Oddly uploading large files like tpvm images I have to use open ssh with -O to use the older scp protocol as opposed to sftp. Go figure.

Hi jeronimo,
How did you attempt to download the files? Which tool did you use? Have you made any changes to your SSH service?

Filezilla and Winscp both do not work with neither protocol. Nor does for example Mobaxterm.
Finally I managed to download using Linux SFTP tool.
