Software Download Through TFTP Server
This section contains instructions for downloading device software (system and boot images) through a TFTP
server. The TFTP server must be configured before downloading the software.
The switch boots and runs when decompressing the system image from the flash memory area where a copy of
the system image is stored. When a new image is downloaded, it is saved in the other area allocated for the addi-
tional system image copy.
On the next boot, the switch decompresses and runs the currently active system image unless chosen otherwise.
To download an image through the TFTP server:
1.
Ensure that an IP address is configured on one of the device ports and pings can be sent to a TFTP server.
2.
Ensure that the file to be downloaded is saved on the TFTP server (the DOS file).
3.
Enter the command “show version” to verify which software version is currently running on the device. The following
is an example of the information that appears:
4.
Enter the command “show bootvar” to verify which system image is currently active. The following is an example of
