Remember NXOS is wrapper around the unixOS so things like a SCP server are available as a feature.
1st step feature enable scp-server for the NXOS
e.g
feature sap-server
2nd step, use your favorite scope client and copy the images to the targets
e.g
scp ./*images* kfelix@10.1.1.1:
3rd you can even script this process with ease.
ssh kfelix:mypassword@10.1.1.1 "config ; feature scp-server "
scp "images*" kfelix:mypassword@10.1.1.1:
you can use passwords ssh logins on nxos and with another AAA setup configured. The shekel will be used for the authentication process
e.g
config ; username kfelix ; username kfelix sshkey ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQC1f9FUinkkkjhftdjrdktg;lthjsyybu;s djky drsd
Do any of the above will eliminate the need for stroking a local ftp/tftp/ssh-server and allows any scp-client to upgrade nxos switches with ease.
