AT-TFTP Server
This section explains how to access and use the AT-TFTP Server. Use AT-TFTP
server to download software upgrades to your switch, and transfer
configuration files to and from your switch.
To use AT-TFTP Server, follow these steps.
1.
If AT-TFTP Server has not yet been installed:
Install it now from the AT-9800 Series Switch Documentation and Tools
CD-ROM.
Select AT-TFTP Server from the Start > Programs > Allied Telesis >
AT-TFTP Server menu.
2.
To set preferences for the AT-TFTP Server:
Select "Options" from the File menu to display the "Set Preferences" dialog
box.
The "Default file transfer directory" field specifies the directory that
AT-TFTP Server will read from or write to for file requests that do not
include a directory specification.
To prevent unauthorised access to private directories, enter a path name in
the "Restrict to directory" field. AT-TFTP Server will use only the specified
directory, even if file requests contain references to other directories.
Select "Read only" to prevent files being written to the PC. To use the PC to
archive scripts created using the
create config
command, select "Read
Write".
Make any required changes and click "OK".
3.
To load a file from AT-TFTP Server to the switch:
On a terminal connected to the RS-232 terminal port (ASYN0), use the
command:
load method=tftp file=filename server=ipadd dest=flash
where
filename
is the name of the file to download and
ipadd
is the IP
address of the PC running AT-TFTP Server.
