I'm using the scp commands to pull some files from the remote server and one variation of the command is not working.

I have 2 files names one.xml and two.xml in a remote server and I'm pulling these two files into the current dir using the following command:

scp [email protected]:/student/class/Intermediate/one.xml .
scp [email protected]:/student/class/Intermediate/two.xml .

The above command works fine but if I use wildcards to pull all the xml files in a single shot as shown below it returns scp: No match.

scp [email protected]:/student/class/Intermediate/*.xml .

Why is it working if I pull the files individually and not working if I try to pull using wildcards.
