Loading Software Using FTP Through Ethernet Port
Introduction to FTP
File transfer protocol (FTP) is an application-layer protocol in the TCP/IP protocol suite. It is used for
transferring files between server and client, and is widely used in IP networks.
You can use FTP to load software onto the switch through an Ethernet port. In this case, the switch can
act as an FTP server or an FTP client. In the following example, the switch acts as an FTP client.
Loading Boot ROM software
