SCP is a network protocol which supports file transfers between Linux hosts. You can use this protocol to directly transfer files from a host to a IGEP Processor Board via Ethernet, Wifi, USB Ethernet Gadget, etc.
Use:
$ scp -r files_to_transfer destination_user@destination_host:/destination_path
Example:
Now let's transfer a file called original.file in your host PC to IGEPv2 in /home/root/
In your Host PC open Terminal and type:
$ scp -r file.text root@192.168.5.1:/tmp/file.text
You can repeat the process from the IGEPv2 console, and transfer a file from IGEPv2 to your Host PC.
