| -1 | Forces scp to use protocol 1. |
| -2 | Forces scp to use protocol 2. |
| -4 | Forces scp to use IPv4 addresses only. |
| -6 | Forces scp to use IPv6 addresses only. |
| -B | Selects batch mode (prevents asking for passwords or passphrases). |
| -C | Compression enable. Passes the -C flag to ssh(1) to enable compression. |
| -c cipher |
| | Selects the cipher to use for encrypting the data transfer. This option is directly passed to ssh(1). |
| -F ssh_config |
| | Specifies an alternative per-user configuration file for ssh. This option is directly passed to ssh(1). |
| -i identity_file |
| | Selects the file from which the identity (private key) for RSA authentication is read. This option is directly passed to ssh(1). |
| -l limit |
| | Limits the used bandwidth, specified in Kbit/s. |
| -o ssh_option |
| | Can be used to pass options to ssh in the format used in ssh_config(5). This is useful for specifying options for which there is no separate scp command-line flag. For full details of the options listed below, and their possible values, see ssh_config(5). |

| -P port |
| | Specifies the port to connect to on the remote host. Note that this option is written with a capital 'P', because -p is already reserved for preserving the times and modes of the file in rcp(1). |
| -p | Preserves modification times, access times, and modes from the original file. |
| -q | Disables the progress meter. |
| -r | Recursively copy entire directories. |
| -S program |
| | Name of program to use for the encrypted connection. The program must understand ssh(1) options. |
| -v | Verbose mode. Causes scp and ssh(1) to print debugging messages about their progress. This is helpful in debugging connection, authentication, and configuration problems. |
